Dem-controlled Congress would engage in ‘political warfare’ against Netanyahu if he stays in power, expert says

Assessment
A Democrat-led Congress would turn Netanyahu's tenure into a political fight, not just a policy dispute. The Iran war angle is the opening wedge, and bipartisan support is plausible given war fatigue. Watch whether GOP ranks actually break, and how Netanyahu's government responds to legislative pressure. The expert's warning frames Israel as a domestic political football.
