  2. I wonder if Israelis are going to ditch Netanyahu after this. Like if your leader gets the cold shoulder from the ruling party of your staunchest ally, you have to reconsider him

  4. Yea man, I’m fucking livid over this shit. Who the fuck does he think he is, coming into our house, telling us what to think and feel, talking shit about our fellow Americans and calling them lackies for a regime I know they fucking hate? Is this guy fuckin’ serious?

    Go home Benny. You’re not welcome here.

  6. From the article:

    “Benjamin Netanyahu’s presentation in the House Chamber today was by far the worst presentation of any foreign dignitary invited and honored with the privilege of addressing the Congress of the United States,” Pelosi wrote on the social platform X after the speech.

  7. >>Which included the prime minister downplaying civilian casualties in the conflict, claiming that *American protesters were backed by Iran and bashing his critics.*

    Hol’ up.

    If Iran has a way to control US college students, there’s a helluva lot of parents and professors out there that would like a word.

  10. This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4790348-pelosi-netanyahu-worst-speech-congress/) reduced by 71%. (I’m a bot)
    *****
    > Former Speaker Nancy Pelosi blasted Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to Congress on Wednesday as the "Worst" in the body's history, harshly criticizing the leader's lack of progress toward a hostage deal with Hamas.

    > "Benjamin Netanyahu's presentation in the House Chamber today was by far the worst presentation of any foreign dignitary invited and honored with the privilege of addressing the Congress of the United States," Pelosi wrote on the social platform X after the speech.

    > Rep. Rashida Tlaib held up a sign during the speech reading "War criminal" and "Guilty of genocide." A prosecutor for the International Criminal Court has recommended Netanyahu be charged with war crimes for the Israeli military's actions in Gaza.

  11. Netanyahu v. Trump – one and the same, criminals, autocrats, low life’s. Does anyone really think they care about you? Pitiful examples of the human race.

  13. You gonna stop selling him weapons then? Otherwise it’s just rhetoric with no substance

  14. Bibi’s been a giant pain in the ass for the Biden administration this past year, and half the reason for him coming here was to help Trump get elected.

    So good for Pelosi for telling him to fuck off.

    Israel will be a better ally for us without him.

  16. Million fucking dollar question: what is he even doing there?! Are they bringing in Putin for a Ted talk next week?

  17. Great, but can they actually do something about this like condemning IDF’s terrorism and war crimes in Palestine or working with the ICC? Or are our politicians too chickenshit to actually do anything?

  19. Cool. Maybe she could have gotten Joe to stop sending weapons while she was getting him to drop out

  20. His speech wasn’t a suggestion, he came here to give orders to his vassals in Congress.

  21. Yeah, it seemed to me that he was really trying to make a case for war with Iran. Fuck that guy. He’s a dictator trying to coerce America into funding, and possibly fighting, wars for him. Not with our money, not with our people.

  22. Missed the part where she and the rest of the Democratic leadership pressured Biden to stop funding the ongoing atrocity

  24. Netanyahu is just dumber than rocks. Seriously his only long term plan is to somehow get the US to invade Iran. I am all for defending Israel but the non-stop attempts to get the US to attack or invade Iran are grating and honestly stupid. Cool- so we lose 60,000 US troops and then send 30 million Iranian refugees into Europe, Turkey and Pakistan causing *those* countries to no fall into chaos. Can’t wait to see a bunch of radical Islamists then take over Pakistan. It’s like the Israeli defense apparatus has no ability to think strategically.

  25. Very likely; talking points designed to appeal to evangelicals don’t require substance, as Barry Goldwater once feared.

    And what is Netanyahu relying on to stay in power?

  26. They’re all afraid of Kamala raining on their parades.

  28. If it’s true that Mike Johnson and Chuck Schumer invited him then she needs to have a LONG talk to Schumer about why he thought that was okay.

  30. Why is he even talking to talking to congress? Israel is nothing more than a client state to the US.

  31. Is this not foreign interference? Why is he allowed to speak at our congress? disgusting how ALL of congress and senate bend over

  32. Yes. Dems hitting the reset on the war In the Middle East.

  33. Odds on how long it takes Bibi to call Pelosi antisemitic ? Asking for a friend

  34. Netanyahu lied his way through the entire speech and pretended his genocide didn’t happen.

    What a joke.
