Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will get a warm reception from U.S. President Barack Obama on his trip to Washington next week, official sources said. But Obama is expected to question Netanyahu closely on where the peace process is heading, around three months before the freeze on West Bank construction expires. The Americans are concerned about the implications that resuming the construction might have on the negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians, the sources said.
