Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa also attended the joint session of Congress to hear Netanyahu. Grassley made the following comment on the speech:
“The speech was moving and forceful. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s candid assessment of the danger of a nuclear weapons-capable Iran needed to be said. The assessment gave Congress and the American people the opportunity to hear directly from the leader of a close ally on the latest security threats from a volatile Middle East. Complacency is not the answer. Support for Israel means fostering democracy in the Middle East. It means maintaining an important strategic partnership in a critical part of the world. And it means ensuring Israel’s inherent right to self-defense.”
