My biggest worry right now if -- what we'll keep -- -- -- right now it's our Iran becoming nuclear.
And it's not just missiles which is what we keep writing about and arguing about the -- use missiles they're gonna attack Israel to protect Saudi Arabia whatever.
My worry is that -- hand nuclear material off.
To the terrorists they're presently supplying.
They are -- presently the biggest state sponsor of terrorism.
We know what we fear that there supplying aside to kill all those people in Syria.
Now if -- they're supplying them -- -- now and they have nuclear material.
Why not give it to some of these terrorists set up the dirty bomb in New York -- on -- -- Los Angeles and then lie about it.
Does -- -- right America's mayor on nine elevenths Rudy Giuliani worried that Iran and everybody knew.
Wave of attacks on the US that is why when.
Claims the President Obama snubbed that meeting with Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to talk about a -- -- surface plenty of people got very upset.
Including Democrats.
It's like New York State assemblyman.
The -- -- and some women.
There was no upsides of the president denying a meeting.
With with the prime minister the bottom line is let's get this straight for all Democrats across America.
The president does not like the prime minister of the State of Israel that is the fact that you cannot deny.
And the fact is that prime minister Netanyahu the only democracy in the Middle East he was elected by the people.
But Obama has had a problem with them for years.
And the idea of know Israel is the country that is being threatened its very survival this is not some politics their survival was in jeopardy Levy -- saying.

-- -- -- Absolutely not the last time when the president said he had Israel's back.
I became very very concerned.
The bottom line is I do not trust the president of the United States with regard to the security of the State of Israel.
I isn't here and I -- -- -- here is someone -- I wanna I wanna say he says the president is very.
-- and Jews can rest assured that he is well rounded out well -- couch the day before when he supported Bob Turner the Republican.
Didn't feel that he was a friend of Israel and then changed his mind literally within moments after that election after visiting the White House the bottom line is.
That the president has -- look the we just had the Democratic Convention.
Jerusalem a fundamental issue.
Was taken out of the platform of the Democratic Party who was responsible.
Is there any doubt in anyone's mind of people in the White House gave the OK we don't know who gave the OK but someone of the White House.

Chant overwhelmingly when they tried to reintroduce Jerusalem they said no.
I would ask the Democratic Party -- listen to the majority of the Democrats don't want jewels over the platform.
Something is wrong in my party -- an issue as fundamental as to rules one that.
We don't get it if something is wrong and President Obama.
I just don't understand the president of the United States this is our one ally in the middle England running at tennis and -- I don't question on my -- assembly but.
-- Jews overwhelmingly in this country.
Vote democratic and in this case.
-- so heavily nine out of ten -- I think it's.
You know it's a disease.
It has to be dealt with it's unfortunate the fact is that most Jews and America.
Or good number of Jews in America the issue of the well being of Israel the relationship between the US and Israel is not the most important issue.
