Following Rabbi Gerald Skolnik’s advice [in his Jewish Week blog] would mean Netanyahu should never speak to
Congress, because speaking to Congress is lobbying for something. If you
agree that the president is being too lenient/naive (as even the EU opines)
with Iran developing the bomb, then stopping a bad deal is necessary and the
only routes are lobbying or taking independent, perhaps military, action.
I
prefer lobbying as a first option.
