Israeli academics and artists call on Biden and UN to shun Netanyahu during his upcoming US visit

  • Over 3,500 Israeli academics and artists have urged President Joe Biden and UN Secretary-General António Guterres not to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during his upcoming visit to the US. They claim Netanyahu incites division, threatens security and the economy, and ignores the conflict with the Palestinians. Netanyahu's public itinerary does not currently include an appointment with Biden.
  • Netanyahu's right-wing government has strained Israel's ties with the US, particularly due to his push to overhaul the judicial system and settlement growth in the West Bank. The plan to weaken the Supreme Court and concentrate power in the hands of Netanyahu and his allies has sparked protests and criticism. Israeli business leaders, military reservists, and others have also come out against the overhaul.
  • Israel's Supreme Court has opened a case to examine the legality of Netanyahu's plans, and Biden has expressed concerns about the outcome. Netanyahu's U.S. Trip comes at a time of domestic crisis in Israel, with widespread opposition to the overhaul seen as undermining democratic institutions.
