I thought at first they'd have to carry him out, but he's talking not like a President, but like a reg'lar American. Nobody is anti-Israel, we just want the Palestinians to have a place too...

Go Mr. President, and good luck.

If you missed it live you got to go find it and listen to it. Lots of lessons in it for us Americans as well. Lot of parallels to our partisan fights here in our country.

WOW!!!!!
