Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, Iran continues to inch closer to making its nuclear ambitions a reality. The administration wants Israel to give diplomacy more time, but Prime Minister Netanyahu said, ``pressure on Iran is growing, but time is growing short.'' For Israel, a nuclear armed Iran threatens its very existence. Ahmadinejad says he wants to wipe Israel off the face of the Earth, and this radical extremist means what he says. Israel will do what it has to in order to be master of its own faith, with or without the United States. Unfortunately, the days of full trust between the U.S. and Israel seem to be on shaky ground. Netanyahu said: I will never let my people live in the shadow of annihilation. If it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, it's a duck. But this duck is a nuclear duck, and it's time the world started calling a duck a duck. Mr. Speaker, America must totally get behind our friend and let the Iranian duck know whose side we are on. And that's just the way it is. ____________________”
