mr. waxman what happens after the speech? will this in any way sway talks or block congress from a possible agreement? >> it is very unlikely. we know prime minister northwestern is a very eloquent speaker. we know that he's going to make a very powerful case against the agreement. there's really very little i think he's going to say that's likely to change the u.s. calculations in seeking an agreement with iran, in particular because although netanyahu does have some very letting concerns in the agreement that's rumored to be emerging the real flaw is he isn't presenting anything else, essentially he's just saying this is a bad agreement he isn't proposing or really hasn't proposed any other strategy. it is unlikely to change the obama administration's decision to go forward. whether it will change the vote in congress that remains to be seen. i think though it will have a probably beneficial impact for him in the israeli elections and as the previous guest said, that is no doubt very much in his mind as well. >> let me brin
