Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu left for Washington on Monday, leaving behind a brutal war to make a politically precariously speech before Congress at a time of great uncertainty following Joe Biden's withdrawal from the presidential race.
Before stepping on the plane, Netanyahu emphasized that irrespective of America's next president, "our enemies must know that Israel and the United States stand together tomorrow and always.'' He plans to thank Biden for decades of friendship and seek additional support.
Netanyahu's speech has the potential to spark disarray, with ongoing efforts for a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas and the US entrenched in an election campaign. The risks intensified with Biden's decision to exit the race for president, casting doubt on the future Democratic nominee.
