The Israeli premier is expected to present a “new way” of dealing with the threat of Iran’s axis of evil
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will address a joint session of the U.S. Congress for a record fourth time on Wednesday, with the speech airing live in the Jewish state at 9 p.m.
With this speech, Netanyahu will surpass former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill (1941, 1943 and 1952) for the highest number of joint-session addresses by a foreign leader. The Israeli leader previously addressed joint sessions in 1996, 2011 and 2015.
The speech will also mark the 10th time that an Israeli leader has taken to the rostrum to address the national legislature of the United States, starting with former prime minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1976 and most recently President Isaac Herzog last year.
