Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was met with both rousing applause and snubs as he addressed Congress on Wednesday for the first time since the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks on Israel.
Outside the building, thousands of anti-Israel protesters gathered, some of whom became unruly and were pepper sprayed by police.
Netanyahu heckled the protesters right back, suggesting the largely left-leaning demonstrators who have disrupted college campuses and other venues nationwide, are funded by Iran and ignorant about the history of the Jewish state.
