Congressman Jerry Nadler was seen reading The Netanyahu Years, a biography of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by Israeli journalist Ben Caspit that has been described as being “sharply critical” of the Israeli leader, minutes before Netanyahu’s speech in US Congress on Wednesday.

Nadler, the representative for New York’s 12th congressional district, also shared a picture of him reading the book on on X, formerly Twitter, and described it as “a very interesting read”.

    Wish there's slide presentation on "Netanyahoo is war criminal."
  • @FrostyFlakes00
    Really wish he would just speak out every single day until his centrist war hawk friends shut this shit down.
  • @LGMDarkQuasar-
    For anyone interested, the book is called 'The Netanyahu Years' by Ben Caspit.

    Allegedly up to 100 democrats & 41 republicans didn’t attend but their places were taken by stand ins just like they do at tge Oscars.

    Congress should be ashamed to applaud. imagine inviting someone to your own house so that they can insult your family. shameless.
  • @Nektaria11000
    He should be protesting vociferously instead of reading. They gladly take the money and put up an act to camouflage their true loyalty.
  • @1cpascal
    He should have been amongst the Congressmen who didn't attend the speech. It would have been wonderful if Netanyahu had arrived at the Capitol only to find it empty.
  • @doreenchindezwa6319
    This is going to age well Well done sir. History is being recorded on who stood on the right side.
  • @rainedyani8505
    Absolutely disgusting that he was praised and applauded - let alone even invited!! As an American, I am beyond ashamed of my government.
  • @darkdan3379
    Didn't bibi the begger say something about going alone? No money for Israel now or ever...
  • @anoynme9258
    He should read instead the judgement of the ICJ, or the arrest warrant for Netanyahu.
