Warren to boycott Netanyahu speech to Congress
The Hill ^ | 06/19/2024 | LAURA KELLY

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) will not attend a speech by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu expected to be delivered next month to a joint meeting of Congress, she told The Hill on Tuesday.

“Benjamin Netanyahu has created a humanitarian disaster,” Warren said.

“The United States needs to be using its leverage, including restrictions on arm sales, as a way to advance a push toward peace in the Middle East,” said the former Democratic presidential candidate, when asked for her reaction to the Biden administration’s pursuit of a military sale to Israel.

“We need a cease-fire, massive humanitarian relief, the return of the hostages, and we’ve gotta have a breakthrough on getting the parties to the negotiating table. Giving more arms to Israel is not pushing in the right direction,” Warren continued.

“We need a cease-fire...”


Why can’t she say, “We need Hamas to surrender...”? That lets everything else she says wants able to happen. Food gets in, peace is restored, hostages released.

I wonder if they’re not sweating the Jewish donors more than they are Jewish voters

I hope the Rats do something really disgusting for the speech...like boycott,refuse to applaud,etc. Then DJT can run ads in CT/NY/NJ showing what they’ve done.

Coming to speak to the US congress was a big mistake.

What possible benefit to Israel?

Anyone who thinks that Libtards can be shamed is delusional. They are genetically incapable of it.
