Netanyahu thanks Barack Obama for aid to Israel

Netanyahu told the US Congress that he appreciated "all that President Obama has done for Israel.”

He said that much of what he has done for Israel is not well known due to security sensitivities.

“In 2011 we had our embassy in Cairo under siege and again he provided assistance at a vital moment," he said, as an example.

“I will always been grateful to President Obama for that support.”
