JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's meeting with President Donald Trump on Tuesday is the first since the two leaders launched a joint war against Iran and a chance for Netanyahu to smooth out strains in their relationship. 'We have a little difference,' Trump said Monday when asked by reporters if he and the Israeli prime minister were on the same page with Iran. 'But pretty close, yeah.' The Americans are making it clear to the Israelis they are the ones who are running the war, Israeli journalist Amit Segal wrote Monday in Israel Hayom. 'It is clear to everyone that Israel has been put in the back seat.'
