Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is set to address Congress on Wednesday, aiming to shift the focus of the American public from domestic politics to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. With the war in Gaza at a critical juncture, Netanyahu seeks to rally support for his actions, which have faced criticism for the high number of Palestinian casualties and humanitarian crisis in Gaza. As attention shifts from internal political debates in the US to international affairs, Netanyahu’s speech is seen as a pivotal moment in garnering American backing for his government’s approach to the conflict. Not all members of Congress plan to attend the address, with some citing opposition to the war in Gaza as their reason for boycotting the speech. The relationship between Netanyahu and President Joe Biden has become strained over the prolonged conflict, with Biden expressing concerns over Israel’s actions and the need for a resolution. The meeting between the two leaders scheduled for Thursday is anticipated to address these contentious issues as they navigate a complex diplomatic landscape.
