This misguided decision threatens to legitimize policies that have led to unprecedented suffering and loss of life in Gaza while undermining efforts for a critically needed ceasefire. Starvation continues to be used as a weapon of war in Gaza and the suffering and death toll there is rising; as fighting worsens on the Israel-Lebanon border, PM Netanyahu continues to ignore demands from millions of people -- including hostages’ families and thousands of Israelis -- to accept a ceasefire that can end the violence, bring their loved ones home, and build true security. It shouldn’t be surprising. PM Netanyahu has built a career on impunity and sabotaging peace processes. His current resume includes everything from domestic corruption charges to overseeing efforts to manipulate U.S. public opinion to accusations of empowering Hamas to weaken a two-state solution. PM Netanyahu's address would be a slap in the face to every victim directly harmed by his disastrous policies in Israel and Palestine, every community mourning loved ones, and every advocate for peace and human rights -- but it doesn’t have to be. By speaking out today you could help make this the moment when champions for peace in Congress show up to right the course by rescinding an invite that should never have been extended in the first place.
