Netanyahu: Jerusalem not a settlement but our capital

(CNN) – President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet face-to-face tonight in Washington.

The former U.S. ambassador to Israel, Martin Indyk, joined us on Tuesday's American Morning. He's also director of the Saban Center for Middle East Policy at the Brookings Institution.
