Mr. Netanyahu Goes to Washington

Last week Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed the US Congress. The visit was controversial because it was done at the invitation of the Speaker by passing the White House. Facing an upcoming election the Israeli Prime Minister not only burnished his credentials as a tough talking leader but also attacked American diplomatic moves with Iran. Today we explore how and why the Prime Minister of Israel has come to feel he has so much say over American foreign policy. And ask if the US can ever be an honest broker in conflicts in the Middle-East.
