Israeli Prime Minister Sounds Warnings About Iran

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is sounding more warnings about the U.S.-led nuclear negotiations with Iran. Speaking to a joint meeting of Congress, Netanyahu argued that Iran is behind a global terror network and he said its quest for nuclear weapons could destroy the Jewish people. He added, quote -- "We must all stand together to stop Iran's march of conquest, subjugation and terror."

Netanyahu praised the U.S. for its longstanding and staunch support of the Jewish state. He also expressed regrets that his address has been perceived as political. Netanyahu said U.S.-Israeli relations should never be governed by politics. The Israeli leader also praised President Obama and again played down tensions between the two men.

Dozens of Democrats are not attending because they view Netanyahu's address as a sign of disrespect toward President Obama. The President was not given advance notice when Netanyahu accepted an invitation from GOP House Speaker John Boehner.  Democrats have also accused Boehner of playing politics as Netanyahu faces a tough re-election contest in Israel in a couple of weeks.  (Metro Networks Inc.)
