On March 20 Barack Obama makes his first trip to Israel as President, also including visits to the West Bank and Jordan. Will this visit help thaw icy relations between Obama and Netanyahu? How will continued violence in Syria factor into the conversation between the two? And how will a new Israeli government affect Netanhayu's position?

Experts on Israel, Arab-Israeli negotiations and U.S.-Middle East relations answered these questions and more in this media briefing call.
