If Israel doesn't want US politicians monitoring them, they can stop taking our tax dollars, military resources and political cover. The best solution is to immediately cut all aid and support for Israel. They should be on their own, and no US politician will need to visit. Until then, we need to call the shots and exit this relationship permanently.
As a not American, its quite insane to see US politicians jump to the defence of people from another country that are also in breach of the geneva convention over its own citizens. You guys really love israel huh?
Israel is terrible, but significantly better than all its neighbors. For example, all the security theater at the airport isn't to catch exploding jews.
We don't but our government does (or they're blackmailed to support them). They're actually trying to sneak a merger of our millitaries into law (https://www.commondreams.org/opinion/us-israel-military-merg...) because they know this is the last generation of Americans that will ever support israel.
