\r\n\tAs the controversy surrounding the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to Congress reaches new heights, one of the US Jewish community’s top leaders is calling on the prime minister to stay home.

\r\n\tHe said that going ahead as planned with the speech would be counter-productive, with all attention given to the political controversy rather than to the issue at stake.
