Today I had the pleasure of welcoming President Herzog of Israel back to the Oval Office. He's been a personal friend to me – and to our nation – for a long time. As I reminded him today, the United States' commitment to Israel is ironclad.

I want more books and movies that are hard to explain

will this make me understand what happened this week?
