A reward for good behavior? The White House praised Israel’s decision to lift the Gaza blockade and said President Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will meet on July 6.

Gibbs said, “"There is more to be done, and the president looks forward to discussing this new policy, and additional steps.”
