Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-Md.) said it was a “mistake” for Democrats to support Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu giving an address to Congress.
“I believe it was, and I’ve expressed that view,” he said when asked on CBS’s “Face the Nation” whether it was a mistake for Democrats to support the visit. “But the reality is, obviously, he came. So for those of us who thought it was a mistake to have him here, we expressed our views by not participating.”

How fascist of him.
I thought Van Hollen was one of the last Middle of the Road Democrats. I guess not.
They’re all filthy communists and so are a bunch of Republicans. Although far fewer than when Trump took office.
Hey Van Hollen - move to Iran you scumbag.
The democrat party hates Israel and hates Jews yet they will still get 80 percent of the Jewish vote because of abortion
I thought it was the 80's band with lead singer, David Lee Roth. Shows what I know.
This is the rats having it both ways dance. Welcome Bibi with max news coverage for the Jewish vote than wait a few days distance yourself for the muzzie vote
The only thing I thought of, regarding headline, is who is Van Hollen and why should anyone care what he says?
“So for those of us who thought it was a mistake to have him here, we expressed our views by not participating.”
I was raised to believe that we have freedom of speech here and that would include visiting dignitaries. They have the right to speak and be listened to at this type of function as it is the way the countries can get a better understanding and find ways to reach agreements, especially with our allies. The US voters didn’t hire these people, and pay them, not to do their job. And I can probably understand that both sides of the senate and house didn’t like some of the speakers. But the list of people they should have paid attention to is long and important:
2024
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu Israel
Prime Minister Fumio Kishida Japan
2023
President Isaac Herzog Israel
Prime Minister Narendra Modi India
President Yoon Suk Yeol South Korea
2022
President Volodymyr Zelensky Ukraine
Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis Hellenic Republic
These are just a few of the people that have spoken in congress over the past couple of years. And I’m relatively sure there were people in the room that didn’t like them. But they, by showing their lack of participation in the addresses, display their incompetence and disregard for the needs of the US citizenry. They should be impeached and removed from office if the do not want to do their job. They swore an oath, they broke it.

Yes. To most, those voters not paying close attention, the Democrats have deniability in either direction.
It's not just abortion. The Jews are socialist. They're at home with the Democratic Party.
So if the American Jews continue to support the Democratic Party, why should we support Israel? We should cut off foreign aid to Israel. At this point, Israel can build their own factories to meet their defense needs so they won't need to depend on us. This isn't the '70s anymore, Israel's economy is large enough to be self-sufficent for their defense.
If they are not serious about being self-sufficient, perhaps they need to catch the first flight out of Tel Aviv to escape to the West and surrender the Holy Land to Hamas.
However much you may think you hate the Democrats, you don’t hate them nearly enough.
Craven b*st*rd.
Lol!
>> So if the American Jews continue to support the Democratic Party, why should we support Israel?
That’s breathtakingly loopy “logic” at work right there.
We need to stay out of it.
Why would any country ever be an ally of the USA? This country will turn its back on you in the blink of a ballot.
all the fu**ing Nazis are concentrated in the Demo party political elite
they’re just plain SICKENING how evil they are
for those who subscribe to such teachings, it is Obvious that Satan is working and working Overtime in USA and Europe these days, to bring the western countries DOWN!
an evil person like this senator does not belong on the public payroll!!!!
I doubt he was missed.
