US House Speaker confirms Israel's Netanyahu to address Congress ‘soon’: Will this move infuriate Democrats?

Hindustan Times  

Days after the Israeli PM vowed that they will continue to fight against Hamas even without US aid, House Speaker Mike Johnson stated Thursday that Benjamin Netanyahu will "soon" address a joint session of Congress. According to a source familiar with the matter, Netanyahu has been communicating with Republican Congressional leaders in recent weeks about a possible joint session address, The Times of Israel reported. Back in 2015, 60 Democrats boycotted Netanyahu's joint session address, which was arranged by Republican congressional leaders when Barack Obama was president. Meanwhile, other Democratic party sources termed Netanyahu’s expected speech to Congress as “grave mistake”, stating that "It would increase polarisation and highlight the disagreement between Democrats and Republicans over the conduct of Netanyahu and Israel.” A considerably bigger number of Democrats may again boycott a Netanyahu address that comes amid the Israel-Hamas war and straining ties between Biden and Israeli PM.
