I personally believe that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu should have declined the invitation to speak to Congress. I say this because he should not leave the country while Israel is facing wars on three fronts.
Every member of Congress should listen to the Prime Minister so they can better understand the threat Israel faces from Iran and her proxies. Iran is not only a threat to Israel but to the entire world. Boycotting the leader of a close ally may make some people feel good, but it also shows their narrow-mindedness. Choosing to hear only what you want to hear is not what our representatives should do. This goes for everyone as well.
I hope that our members of Congress and Senate listen to the Prime Minister to get a better understanding of the situation.
