Netanyahu's Visit to Washington Amidst Uncertainty

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrives in Washington to meet with President Biden and Vice President Harris as concerns of a wider war in the Middle East grow. Netanyahu must navigate the delicate balance between the GOP and Democrats in Congress, as pressure for a Gaza ceasefire mounts and criticism over war crimes allegations increases.

He may seek support from former President Trump to continue fighting. Controversy arises as former hostages travel with him.

Meanwhile, Harris treads carefully on Israel and Gaza, maintaining US support while potentially criticizing Israeli actions. Biden and Harris will meet with Netanyahu separately at the White House, and Harris will skip his Congressional address.

There are differing views on how Harris will approach Netanyahu, with some expecting more criticism from her than from Biden. As Netanyahu prepares for his visit, concerns remain over his clashes with Biden and the need for US support at the United Nations.

Despite their differences, Netanyahu and Biden have avoided a land war with Hezbollah and Iranian-backed militia. The visit comes at a time of political uncertainty in Washington, with Biden announcing his decision not to run for reelection.
