Amid U.S. worries that Israel will attack Iran over its nuclear program, President Obama will meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House on March 5, officials said today.
The announcement was tucked into a statement on the weekend visit to Israel by Obama's national security adviser, Tom Donilon.
"The visit is part of the continuous and intensive dialogue between the United States and Israel and reflects our unshakeable commitment to Israel's security," said a statement on Donilon's visit.
The statement did not mention Iran.
On Sunday, Gen. Martin Dempsey, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said on CNN that the U.S. has advised Israel against an Iran strike.
