It's been announced by Speaker Mike Johnson that Bibi Netanyahu, the Prime Minister of Israel, will address a Joint Session of Congress. If he ends up not attending in 2024, all responses will resolve NO. Close date will be extended as necessary.

Unless otherwise noted, any option that references a "live stream" refers to atleast one of the live streams of C-SPAN, CNN, and FOX, and only refers to footage from inside of the chamber. Any option that refers to words spoken by Netanyahu will only refer to words spoken while on the platform delivering his remarks.

Netanyahu doesn't actually start speaking until 25 minutes into this video?

Looks like it was 52 minutes total, should resolve No.

Biden couldn't wait another week? Now nobody's talking about Bibi's big day!

"Hostage" said by Netanyahu more than 4 times

FYI, for these two new responses, hostage and rape, any form of the word will count. So hostages, raped, etc.

Arabic word(s) spoken by Netanyahu

Counting proper sounds like "Hezbollah" or "Hamas"?

@DanielFox9fff Those are the groups' common names in English as well, so I don't think that would count?

@UnspecifiedPerson @DanielFox9fff Good question. I don't think that's in the spirit of the question, I wouldn't count that. On that topic, I also wouldn't count Hebrew words if they are the same words in English as well. City names also wouldn't count for either.

City names should probably count if they're transliterated? So e.g. "Jerusalem" or "Hebron" wouldn't, but "yerushalaim" should.

More than 5 minutes of applause

Total?

@DanielFox9fff That is what I intended it to mean.

A date is now confirmed:

@mint Hm, that makes the Shavuot (and "cheesecake") markets I added a lot less sensible than when it was thought he would be speaking on or near Shavuot...

@mint pretty incompetent to put it on Shavuot initially!
