Netanyahu, Obama Meet at White House
(CNN) President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu met for two hours Tuesday at the White House. The Israeli leader arrived after a show of solidarity with leaders of Congress from both parties, during which he thanked the U.S. lawmakers for their "constant support" and "unflagging" friendship. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Cal.) said that Congress speaks with "one voice" on the subject of Israel. "Together we remain committed to advancing the peace process, preserving Israel's security, [and] responsible sanctions against Iran." State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said: "Do we see eye to eye on everything? No. Are we satisfied with the exchange and the seriousness [in which] the prime minister has taken our concerns on board? We are."
