Bear in mind while you watch this that over the last three weeks Netanyahu’s poll numbers and those of his party have been slipping.

11:30 AM: It would be interesting to watch this speech with subtitles which detailed the specific ways in which each point Netanyahu makes is misleading or simply false.

11:32 AM: A key point Netanyahu is making is that the Iranian “break out” phase will be short and that Israel believes it will be shorter than U.S. intelligence believes it will be. Remember that we now know Netanyahu specifically and repeatedly misstated what Israel’s intelligence agencies were telling him about the Iranian program in his 2012 speech to the UN.

11:37 AM: BECAUSE IT’S NOT POLITICAL!!!: Netanyahu’s campaign site livestreams speech and harvests campaign email lists.
