[Jerusalem Post] Hilary Leila Krieger - Although the details of Monday's talks between Prime Minister Netanyahu and President Obama continued to be shrouded in secrecy, the prime minister Tuesday said the atmosphere "was very open and very warm." "The discussions dealt with the complex of issues vital for Israel's security and our joint efforts to advance the peace process. We discussed these issues in detail, in a practical way and out of friendship. I really appreciated the professional and positive approach I discovered." Referring to other meetings he held on his trip, Netanyahu said, "There was a great understanding among Jewish leaders and in the Senate that we want to advance peace and that we are taking practical measures to do so, while we have real security needs that the U.S. is prepared to help with."
