Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu speaks before a joint meeting of Congress on Capitol Hill in Washington, Tuesday, March 3, 2015. In a speech that stirred political intrigue in two countries, Netanyahu told Congress that negotiations underway between Iran and the U.S. would "all but guarantee" that Tehran will get nuclear weapons, a step that the world must avoid at all costs.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in his Tuesday speech to Congress that Iran is a threat to “the peace of the entire world.”

“At a time when many hope Iran will join the community of nations, Iran is busy gobbling up the nations,” Netanyahu said, referencing Iran’s power in the Middle East. “We must all stand together to stop Iran’s march of conquest, subjugation and terror.”

Netanyahu said that reaching a negotiated agreement with the “militant” regime in Iran about its nuclear program “would be to win the battle but lose the war.”

Netanyahu said that the current deal the U.S. and others are negotiating with Iran “will not prevent Iran from obtaining nuclear weapons.”
