"Passive-aggressive whining about people who dare to disagree with you" is Jim Treacher's latest comment here, directed at me.

Benjamin Netanyahu's full speech at the U.N. today was a masterpiece. It is available at the U.N. website.  Listen to the whole thing, it's about 45 minutes. Here is a clip of most of it: Contrast it with the delusional and dishonest speech of Mahmoud Abbas at the U.N....
