Netanyahu to Seek Increased Military Aid at White House Visit 
--------------------------------------------------------------


 
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is meeting with President
Obama at the White House today, marking the first talks between the two
leaders since Netanyahu failed to block the nuclear deal with Iran.
Netanyahu is seeking a major increase in U.S. military aid to Israel
over the coming decade, beyond the $3 billion annually the U.S. already
provides. The meeting comes as Israeli forces shot dead a young
Palestinian woman at a checkpoint in the occupied West Bank, accusing
her of drawing a knife.
