this is not the first time that the white house has snubbed bebe netanyahu.t's a climax because it's in front of the world stage but israel will be has been and will be, our biggest ally, our strongest supporter and ally and friend in the region particularly now when we see the world is really being swallowed up by thisno-! radicalism and we can separate the sunnis and shiites and iranian regime they are all on the same list because they all have the same goal. there's a one-to-one correlation when israel is safe, secure and thriving that will mean the same thing for the region and national securitynwbn for/Ñzañ the u.s. . >> let me ask you, then on that point is mr. netanyahu actuallyssgo going to be inducing fear or is he actually going to be giving us a wake-up call? and that is going to be that iran having a nuclear deal will be a bad deal for everyone. the region -- we can go from micro to macro. what would a good deal for iran -6á be, bebe netanyahu and everyone in the region wouiz$k be on boardl with a good deal for iranian. behavioral changes and stop

bebe netanyahu doesn't want to be partisan. this is not republicans or democrats for him.t is about survival. he has iranian regime seeking nuclear weapons. isis two miles from the golan heights. why do democrats want this meeting? they're losing jews to the republican party seen as turning their backs on israel and they are. vice president biden israel making comments about the israeli settlements, looking disgruntled with bebe netanyahu. this is bad relationship made bad by the white house but not net yoo-hoo. >> zoo associated press world powers have given up stopping iran from developing nuclear weapons. what say you? >> i think we're essentially giving them tools to build a bomb to destroy israel. they have made no bones wanting to do that. i think that is incredibly dangerous. we can't let netanyahu off the hook. he has some responsibility here. he is facing election in a few weeks back home. >> in march. >> i think he could be a little more responsible about time of his visit. i think speech would be very different -- >> he was invited. >> he was invited. >> one of

netanyahu. you know bebe, the star of this campaign ad. >> baby-sitter? kennedy: bebe, sitter, get it? the pun is just as corny in hebrew, we checked. netanyahu is up for re-election next month, he's trying to improve his chances, 47% of israelis are not wild about the speech, and they consider it a political stunt. just ask mitt romney. that 47% can come back to bite you in the ars come election day. i say to bebe, the elephants and damn donkeys, make like "frozen" and let it go. ♪ let it go, let it go >> so beautiful, no one wants the drama, and we all want to keep iran from getting the bomb. trust me. sound good, you don't want iran doing that. i know i'm right. we can have the big talk after the election. we will have to find a way to work together on iran and isis and all the whack jobs in between. there is too much evil out there to suck the oxygen out of room with manufactured problems. kayla mueller spent her life helping people who really needed it. she wrote a letter to her dad saying she found god and other people suffering. i refuse to believe that kind of good can be exting

states and israel will go on long after the obama presidency's finished, and i think that's why bebe netanyahung to congress. lou: and i for one, can't wait to hear what he has to say. we have heard -- well, i can't wait to hear what he has to say. [laughter] good to see you. >> thank you. good to see you. lou: and it's always great to hear what you have to say. >> thank you. lou: time for a look at our online poll results. we asked whether you believe that this country's military heroes who fought in afghanistan believe the taliban is a terrorist group. 98% of you said yes which counterscreens what president obama says which is also intriguing because the state department designated the taliban as terrorists and well a decade ago. be sure to vote in our poll. which is your greatest concern about the american presidency? barack obama or the 47% who think he's doing a good job? we'd like to hear from you. go to louto be -- loudobbs.com and vote away. >>> there's another bombshell exposing the reverend al sharpton's money problems. according to national review online, every single for-profit ent

i want to take a moment to the talk about the controversy surrounding bebe netanyahu's joint sessionongress that's coming up in the first week of march. i, for one, am really earring to hear what he has to -- eager to hear what he has to say. israel has a lot at stake. i don't blame him for wanting the share his views and, in fact, i think it'll be important for the american people to get the perspective of our closest ally in the region. i'm surprised that the administration is upset to hear from a close and valuable ally on such a sensitive topic. if we want to build confidence and trust of the american position, we have to listen. b foreign policy should be a place where our long-term security interests are front and center. and the political hacks should be doing campaigns and staying there. we should strive to make it bipartisan again can. a president needs to set a strategy, to be clear about it, not overcommit or overpromise but always strive to deliver. the third principle is that the president's word needs to be backed up by the greatest military force in the world. i grew u

if we're going to have bebe netanyahu come and speak to a joint session of congress, perhaps membersof congress would like to have minister zarif or former minister zarif testify before the congress and have an opportunity to ask him questions. you know? why not? >> i think minister zarif has enough problems with his own congress. >> somebody from iran might be invited to come and testify before the congress. the foreign relations committee. and answer questions and talk about this stuff. why are we afraid of information? why are we agreed tofraid to talk to people and learn from them? that sort of puzzles me. >> we at the than till council are not afraid of information so we're really pleased that you had time to come today. >> it's wonderful to visit with you all. >> thank you all for coming. excellent conversation. >>> this week on c-span in primetime, three nights of tech featuring the executives and innovators driving today's most successful internet companies. >> he leases a taxi for $40,000 a year it should be a bentley or something. instead it's just a taxi. and for that, for

look bebe netanyahu is coming to the u.s.se to a joint session because, in fact he's not being heard by this president at a time in which tehran is heading toward a nuclear weapon aimed at him. we have some real problems where our allies do not trust us and our enemies obviously do not fear us. that has to change. >> well and governor pataki let me say this to you if you might run for the presidency in the last presidential election you had a republican presidential candidate, mitt romney who was in a private fund-raiser and made the now infamous 47% remarks, which really herd his candidacy. you now have rude gi daly giuliani at a private event making some very direct and inflammatory remarks about the president of the united states at a private event. so what can you say to people who might be thinking about -- >> and, gloria -- >> yes. >> and, gloria you have a president whose policies have frustratingly made us in a much more vulnerable place. that's what we should be discussing. why are we talking about the 2012 election?

but bebe netanyahu is also being create sided for what he said -- criticized for what he said.e for decades and also the christians in the middle east. these were populations that made up, you know, a very significant part of these nations, and their cultural patchwork, and now they're forced to surrender their homes in an effort to, what cave into radical islam? that cannot be the comprehensive strategy going forward. bill: these terrorists would love a holy war. whether it's jews or christians, they would welcome that. and based on the actions we see from week to week, that's what it looks like they're gunning for, saw. >> yeah, they're absolutely gunning for that. but, you know, again, to make the distinction between isis and al-qaeda to make the distinction between well, they're after jews and they're after christians, to make any distinction is to lose time and grounding in a larger larger effort. the lone wolf, the home grown terrorists are linking up to the larger networks, they're growing at an exponential pace. we thought they were just in syria and iraq and now we're
