1. Rabbi Menachem M. Schneerson:

   You are going to a place of deep darkness and lies, and if you will light one candle of truth, you will dispel the darkness. (to Benjamin Nethanyahu when he became Israel’s UN Ambassador)

2. Ted Cruz:

   The timing seems awfully coincidental that in the week when Israel's Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu came to Washington, spoke in Congress about the enormous threat of President Obama's misguided deal with Iran that is opening the door to Iran acquiring nuclear weapons and in the very week when Bob Menendez showed incredible courage to speak out and call out President Obama for the damage that his policy was doing to our national security that coincidence is troubling.

3. Halie Soifer:

   It's a race against the clock -- we can only reenter the deal on our terms, and if we can not reenter the agreement by the end of the year, it's possible Iran may have reached a nuclear breakout capability, ultimately, the Biden administration is committed to preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon, which is an objective it shares with our allies, including Israel.

4. Hillary Clinton:

5. Yedidia Stern:

   Diaspora Jews are a central strategic front for the state of Israel, what the Israeli government is doing is to slap them in the face over and over and over again.
