A group of senior Israeli figures including former national security officials, academics and business leaders have sent US congressional leadership a blistering letter accusing Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who is set to speak to Congress on Wednesday, of threatening both Israeli and American national security.

The letter calls Netanyahu an “existential threat” and paints him as selfishly concerned with his political survival and singularly to blame for failing to defeat Hamas in the current war in Gaza. It also highlights Netanyahu’s ongoing legal troubles, including the fact he’s been being charged with bribery and fraud.

There were early questions about whether Netanyahu would even get a White House meeting during the trip, as his relationship with President Joe Biden has gotten increasingly strained during the course of the war, now in its tenth month. The leaders are now expected to meet, with the timing in flux due to Biden’s Covid-19 diagnosis.
