Condit Jr., who ran against Boehner in Cincinnati, Ohio, said that the invitation is “another slap in the face to the American people whether the American people realize it or not.”

“This was clearly done because Obama said last night that he would veto any sanctions Iran,” he added.

The invitation to Netanyahu to address Congress, extended without having consultations with the White House and the State Department, is a sharp rebuke to Obama, who asked the new Republican-dominated Congress to stay out of negotiations over Iran’s nuclear program.

“Netanyahu is being treated as if he is the president of the United States. We need him to come and straighten up the country by addressing Congress,” Condit Jr. wondered.

“The best thing that could happen if Netanyahu shows up to give speech before Congress is if the attorney general of the United States, together with other countries, would arrest Netanyahu and send him off to The Hague to stand trial for crimes against humanity, the crimes he did against the Palestinian people over his ten years in office,” he stated.
