President Obama will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday, Fox News has learned, as a sharp disagreement over settlements continues to fester.
Israeli sources confirmed that Netanyahu, who will be in the United States for a meeting of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, will sit down with Obama now that the U.S. president has postponed his trip to Indonesia and Australia in order to work on health care reform.
Obama was initially planning to leave Sunday, putting him thousands of miles away from Netanyahu and eliminating the possibility of a meeting with the prime minister at a time when tensions are at historic highs. But with the trip postponed until summer, the two leaders have a chance to repair the damage done during Vice President Biden’s recent trip to the Middle East.

As long as we keep pretending that antisemites are not antisemitic, they will always be able to dictate to Israel anything they want and help out the Muslims they have decided to side with.
I got no idea how this will help. This just gives Obama another opportunity to bully Netanyahu. Obama refuses to give any type of material or tactical support concerning a strike against Iran. What is the point?
Since this will be their first meeting, I suggest we wait and see what happens.
Natanyhu better check his pockets after the meeting!
