Benjamin Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, who claims to be engaged in war on seven fronts, appeared for the fourth time in the U.S. Congress. In his highly controversial speech, he portrayed Israel’s wars on occupied fronts as defending Western civilization and America.
Mr. Netanyahu spoke on Wednesday, July 24th, in front of hundreds in the U.S. Congress, while outside, hundreds of protesters criticized his presence in America with vehement slogans.
Simultaneously with the protests against his presence in America, his speech in the House of Representatives and Senate was met with reception.
It is noteworthy that some members of the U.S. House of Representatives did not attend his speech in protest against the situation in Gaza resulting from Israeli airstrikes.
This is the fourth visit of the Prime Minister of Israel to the U.S. Congress. Prior to addressing this assembly, he had stated that Israel was engaged in war on seven fronts.
Mr. Netanyahu defended Israel’s decisions to engage in wars on several fronts during his speech and added that Iran is the cause of unrest and turmoil in the region.
He introduced America as the guardian of Western civilization and described the ongoing wars in which Israel is involved as a confrontation between “barbarism and civilization.”
Meanwhile, Netanyahu’s speeches in the U.S. Congress continue to stir controversy and polarization, reflecting deep divisions both within American politics and international responses to Israel’s policies.
Furthermore, his characterization of Israel’s military actions as defending Western values highlights ongoing debates over the legitimacy and consequences of such interventions on global stability and regional dynamics.
