President Obama told Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the United States would be willing to negotiate a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas.

The White House says Obama condemned the rockets and said Israel has the right to self-defense. But Obama also urged both sides not to escalate the crisis and to restore calm.

Obama also relayed concerns about a Palestinian-American teenager who was detained and apparently beaten by Israeli authorities. Obama says Israel has worked to resolve that situation.

The two leaders also discussed Iran. Obama says the U.S. won’t accept any deal that doesn’t ensure Iran’s nuclear program is peaceful.

    I can see this going well. There will be lots of Republicans who are singularly focused on Israel’s hegemony in the region getting on board with Obama’s efforts to get them to stop oppressing the Palestinians.
