Conservative columnist George Will said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” roundtable that it’s unfair to accuse President Obama of turning his back on Israel.

“I really do not think it’s fair to fault the president for ‘throwing Israel under the bus,’ as they say,” Will said. “Granted, he has a bad relationship with my good friend [Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu, but the relationships between the U.S. military and the Israeli military, which is 98 percent of the point of this relationship, are quite good.”
