Twenty-three U.S. House Democrats urged Speaker John Boehner to postpone a speech to Congress by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, saying it appears Boehner is “using a foreign leader as a political tool against” President Barack Obama.
The congressional address scheduled for March 3, when Netanyahu says he will warn about a “bad” nuclear deal that Obama is negotiating with Iran, has further strained a troubled relationship between the two leaders.
