Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a joint meeting of Congress. He thanked the U.S. for standing with Israel throughout history and outlined his opposition to a possible deal with Iran over its nuclear program.

The prime minister’s speech was controversial because Republican congressional leaders invited him without the involvement of the Obama administration. At least 50 Democratic members boycotted the address, and Vice President Joe Biden was also not in attendance.

After House Speaker John Boehner gaveled in the session, C-SPAN cameras showed scenes from the House chamber of members of Congress and other attendees. The prime minister’s speech begins approximately 22 minutes into the program. close
