Israeli President Isaac Herzog’s visit to the White House this week will be the second time he has met with U.S. President Joe Biden during this Hebrew year. This is a badge of honor for the Jewish state and for Herzog himself. The Israeli president will also address a joint meeting of Congress, yet another sign of distinction for our country.
But for all the pomp and circumstance of this visit, there is an elephant in the room: The U.S. leader has yet to invite the head of the Israeli government, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, to the White House, despite his return to office in late 2022.
