Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should use his Wednesday speech to a joint meeting of Congress to seek a renewal of bipartisan American support for Israel that began when the U.S. became the first nation to recognize the Jewish state’s independence in 1948.
Netanyahu, who is also scheduled to meet this week with President Biden, Vice President Kamala Harris, and former president Trump, will need to use his visit to remind elected officials and the American people of the threats his nation has faced since its creation.
