Vice President Kamala Harris will not attend Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s joint address to Congress this week, according to reports. The decision, made before President Joe Biden’s announcement to withdraw from the 2024 race, has sparked speculation about the administration’s strategy.
Harris was initially expected to sit directly behind Netanyahu’s podium during the Wednesday event. Instead, she is scheduled to speak in Indianapolis, a move a former senior administration official described as “probably not an accident.” The official suggested that Biden may be keeping Harris away from the White House during Netanyahu’s visit to avoid images of her associating with the Israeli prime minister.
This development comes as Harris faces criticism from Zionist organizations over her comments on student protests in support of Palestinians and Hamas. However, a current U.S. official stated that a future Harris administration’s policies on the Israel-Palestinian would align with Biden’s, emphasizing support for Israel’s security and a two-state solution.
A record number of Democrats are set to boycott Netanyahu’s speech, signaling a significant anti-Israel shift in the Democrat party in recent years.
Meanwhile, President Biden may also snub Netanyahu, with a senior official hinting that a meeting between the two leaders is uncertain.

She is a stick deck. She didn’t even win the democratic nomination. When she ran in the 2020 election, she just got 3% of the primary vote. The high interest just stuck her in as a candidate without being elected by the voters. The democrats are forgetting what country they are in. They are running an antisemitic dictatorship .
I wonder what Pinchas ben Elazer ben Ahron would do to her and her Jewish husband?!
A soulless creature of the swamp. Maybe the ‘veep-guy’ might make himself useful and meet with Bibi?
An aide to the vice president said the two world leaders will meet separately later this week. Harris’ aide cited a previously scheduled event as the reason for missing the speech Wednesday.
You must have missed that part…real balanced reporting
This invitation was extended to Netanyahu months ago. But its good that Kamala should show potential Jewish voters her true colors and they will make their voice heard at the voting booths. Hopefully those who have not yet gotten the message about where the wind is blowing by the Democrats, will understand now and act in accordance.

Rebbitzen Goldenpickanicerscreenname: Did the same grotesque thoughts cross your mind with regard to Lee Zeldin?
Let the us all understand …אין לנו אלא אבינו שבשמים
This is quite telling…
Guess her boss, Barak Hussein , told her to start hating Israel. Publicly
So now Pinchos is “grotesque”?! Do you believe in the Torah or don’t you? Are you even Jewish?!
“happilyretired”, what do you mean “previously scheduled”? When was it scheduled? Yesterday or the day before?
Don’t worry, her and hubby Dougie Emhoff will make it up to the community with false interpretations of Hanukkah at their annual celebration.
Milhouse: My point is that inferring that Pinchas would kill Vice President Harris is grotesque. Stop distorting.
