Trump and Netanyahu to meet March 5th

The settlements dispute: Netanyahu said at a meeting of his party that he had been discussing with the Trump administration the possibility of annexing the West Bank settlements. The White House flatly denied the claim and demanded Netanyahu backtrack, which he did. A White House official told me today the incident is over and the White House sees it as "Water under the bridge."

Netanyahu's legal troubles: A senior White House official told me it's an internal Israeli matter and will not influence the President's decision making on the content and timing of his peace plan. The White is still working on the peace plan and Secretary of State Tillerson said Wednesday that it'll be up to the president to decide when he feels he's ready to put that plan forward. "I will say it's fairly well advanced, is what I would say", Tillerson added.
