Has Marco Rubio's tour of the Gulf reassured US allies?

Benjamin Netanyahu says he's grateful to the US for its military aid but that it's time for Israel to build its own weapons-production capacity.

In this episode: 
Alexandre Vautravers, Security and defence policy specialist
Michael Mulroy, Former US Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for the Middle East
Antony Loewenstein, Author of 'The Palestine Laboratory'
