Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu vowed “total victory” against Hamas and condemned American opponents of the war in Gaza on Wednesday in a scathing speech to Congress boycotted by dozens of Democratic lawmakers and protested by thousands seeking an end to the war and the humanitarian crisis created by it.
Speaking for nearly an hour to frequent applause from US lawmakers, as well as stony silence from many leading Democrats in the chamber, Netanyahu said the US has a shared interest in his country’s fight against Hamas and other Iran-backed armed groups.“America and Israel must stand together. When we stand together something really simple happens: We win, they lose,” said Netanyahu, who wore a yellow pin expressing solidarity with the Israeli hostages held by Hamas.
