LIVE THREAD! PRIME MINISTER BENJAMIN NETANYAHU AT AIPAC
AIPAC/ also CSPAN2 ^ | May, 23, 2011 | onyx

Posted on 05/23/2011 3:53:37 PM PDT by onyx

At 7:00 p.m. EDT, this photo box will turn into the live feed from the Monday banquets at AIPAC Policy Conference 2011





Monday, May 23, 2011 - 10:00am



While Washington, D.C., is increasingly consumed with bickering between Democrats and Republicans, the U.S.-Israel relationship remains the one issue that transcends the partisan divide. In a display of this bipartisan spirit, more than half of Congress will attend tonight's Gala Banquet, which will fill a room large enough to fit the Washington Monument on its side.



This year, however, for the first time ever, Hall D/E, as massive as it is, cannot fit all delegates and guests for a sit-down dinner. As a result, all student delegates will be seated in the Ballroom Banquet in Ballrooms A, B and C. Each banquet will feature live and simulcast appearances as well as unique programming. The major speakers tonight—Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, House Majority Leader John Boehner and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid—will appear personally in both banquet halls.

Representatives from more than 65 countries—including ambassadors from China, South Africa, Mexico, Turkey and the Netherlands—will be seated at tonight's dinner.

Senators, members of Congress, administration officials, foreign diplomats and other VIPs at the banquets will have their names read during the Roll Call, a lively Policy Conference tradition that has been a crowd favorite for many years. AIPAC National Board members Amy Friedkin and Michael Tuchin will join AIPAC Executive Director Howard Kohr for the Roll Call.

The Gala Banquet will be the end of a full day of Monday programming. The morning kicks off with an address by Reverend Dr. Tony Crisp. After the morning plenary, delegates will head to lobbying workshops, where they will learn from AIPAC's top experts how to make the case for Israel on Capitol Hill tomorrow.

Don’t see anyone for days, sometimes weeks.

Lucky you:) Bitter clingers down here too:) Take my word for it, Teh Won really "stepped in it" down here when he decreed that Israel should go back to the '67 borders and "defend itself, by itself." Did he think we're known as the Bible Belt for no nuthin'?! The muzzie-lovin' Putz-in-Chief has stirred a hornets nest 'round these parts. We don't take kindly to anyone messin' with Jews or Israel. Period. Yes, down here it's about religion when it comes to the Jews and Israel, but it's also about HONOR! WE WILL NEVER FORGET!

God Bless America and God Bless Israel!

Amen!

AMEN! I believe that the polls these crooks live by are telling them that the South and ALL red-blooded Americans have had more than enough! Time for the mussie-lovin' commie's to exit the stage. One way or another, they're outta there!

Sometimes I think it will be the Texans that lead the way out of this disaster:)

I don’t KNOW that I’m right. That’s just my assessment based on the rest of the speech

Hannity, on his radio program, was claiming that the organizers for AIPAC made a strong request to it’s members to NOT boo Obozo during his speech.

Well, they sure paid attention then, because they applauded, although I don’t think it was the type of applause he’s used to. Certainly not the screams and cheers he received in Ireland today. That was downright SICKENING.

There’s nothing that could make me compromise my principles to cheer that moron.

Couldn’t agree more.

Obama has already started snubbing Jewish groups in favor of the Soros funded “liberal answer to AIPAC”, the anti-Israel JStreet.

Plus, at this point, there won’t be an Israel to lobby for if they don’t recognize the drastic climate, and act on it.
