Palestinian-American congresswoman is the lone protester at Netanyahu’s speech

RASHIDA TLAIB, the only Palestinian-American member of the US Congress, was the lone protester on Wednesday when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu fulfilled an invitation from leading Republicans and Democrats to address members of both the House and Senate inside the US Capitol.

Speaking for close to an hour, Netanyahu was received with thunderous applause and frequent standing ovations by both Republicans and Democrats, including two minutes of non-stop cheering before his speech could even begin.
