An important speech by Netanyahu

It may be difficult for anyone who has never been to Israel to understand how vulnerable this tiny country is.  It is minuscule in size and if that alone is not enough it has a a population of 6 million surrounded by 180 million hostile, mostly unreasonable Muslims.  One more thing:  it is the only progressive democracy in the Middle East with the only thriving, dynamic economy.  While living amidst backward and hostile countries Israel also has to cope with a militant, medieval regime led by religious fanatics with hegemonic global aspirations.  Wow!  Over the last 60 years the Israelies have successfully beaten back three major attempts to annihilate them and yet have survived and prospered.  Prime Minister Netanyahu's speech to the UN here, provides a brief history of the country, why it fears an Iran, and what it intends to do about the idea of terrorists and their sponsors actually becoming a nuclear powers.
