Obama, prime minister of Israel to meet in Washington
WASHINGTON — The White House announced Sunday that President Barack Obama will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu during Netanyahu’s trip to Washington to address Jewish groups. Netanyahu was arriving Sunday night for a speaking engagement at the three-day 2009 General Assembly of The Jewish Federations of North America. He will meet with Obama this evening. U.S.-Israeli relations have been strained since Netanyahu rejected Obama’s demand that the Israeli government stop building or expanding Jewish settlements in the West Bank.
