Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress on Wednesday has sparked significant controversy, with dozens of Democratic lawmakers, including former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Vice President Kamala Harris, planning to boycott the event. The boycotts, largely driven by opposition to Netanyahu's handling of the Gaza conflict, highlight a growing rift within U.S. political circles concerning support for Israel. Protesters, including a group of congressional interns, are expected to gather in large numbers on Capitol Hill, condemning what they describe as a humanitarian crisis in Gaza caused by the Israeli government. Despite the protests and boycotts, Netanyahu aims to reaffirm U.S. bipartisan support for Israel, particularly among Republican lawmakers. This visit also includes meetings with President Biden and former President Trump, underscoring the complex political dynamics at play. Security measures around the Capitol have been heightened in anticipation of potential disturbances during the address.
