that speech to a rare joint session of congress in the u.s. >> let's go straightaway to the toronto times --tehranimes the iranian reaction. his argument is that congress should not forget that the great majority of americans back nuclear talks with iran. it says, seeing this applause in congress is irritating when we consider that netanyahu's stance has angered some politicians within israel. looking at the american press can i turn to the editorial board from the "washington post" and it has its official verdict saying that netanyahu's arguments need to be listened to by barack obama. it has said that the white house has sought dismissed the israeli leader as a politician seeking reelection. that should should stop, it says. and obama needs to end these attacks on the negotiations. what about a large nuclear infrastructure in iraq? and what about arrangements that give toronto the right to expand its nuclear program after a decade or so? that is the -- that would give torehran the right to expand its nuclear program after a decade of sore? -- decade or so? one allocation is saying that the way t
