The prospect that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu might soon address a joint session of Congress is already stirring a storm of controversy on Capitol Hill, where liberal Democrats — up in arms over Israel’s conduct in the war with Hamas — are already vowing a boycott.
The bitter conflict has been an ongoing headache for President Biden and other Democratic leaders, who are attempting a delicate balance between supporting America’s closest Middle Eastern ally in a time of war while denouncing elements of Netanyahu’s military strategy, which has resulted in thousands of civilian deaths in Gaza.

The only thing the Democratic Party hates more than Israel is Netanyahu.

Most D voters are pretty strong to very strong pro- Israel and not antisemites. But the mobsters who seized control over the dnc and thus the party finances are effectively neo- Nazis and communists
They don’t give a d about American values or morality or what’s right or wrong They tear down america and everything we stand for, period.
Can Americans regain control over washDC?

Oh...this could be beautiful!!! Let the Rats boycott the speech...or turn their backs as he's speaking...or wear those terrorist things on their heads! Doing so might secure Michigan and Minnesota for The Big Guy but will lose him CT/NY/NJ and PA.
BWHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

Possibly, but by and large Jewish Americans do not have the sense that God should have given them.
The one Jewish Senator is a damn communist who hates Israel.
Democrats are more likely to lose Muslim votes.

I hope he does come and address congress. It will be a great litmus test, making it clear who is who.

The American people are overwhelmingly behind Israel and PM Netanyahu. This will make it abundantly clear that is the case.

None of our Jewish Congressman hate Israel. So... you excuse (Senator) Schumer? And Sanders (forgot about him)?

But with the ICC seeking a warrant for his arrest, does he dare come to the US? It might be a trap.
