so -- the speech
Yes, I watched it.
It was actually a decent speech. Lots of platitudes about bipartisan support for Israel, and the support Israel has received from the Obama administration. Biblical references to Esther and Moses -- not unexpected. Holocaust references, the "never again" rhetoric -- also not unexpected, nice touch to have Elie Wiesel in the audience.
He made his case forcefully but respectfully.
How much nicer would it have been had protocols been followed.
I am not convinced he's right, I am not convinced he's wrong.
I think the deal happens regardless of this speech.
And he didn't offer an alternative.
