Visiting UK, US passport expiring within 2 months of visit
I'll be travelling to the UK (London) at the end of March for about a week from TLV. I am a dual US/Israeli citizen and will be entering the UK on my US passport, however it expires on May 7, 2017. Is this going to be a problem? Do I need to rush renew my US passport?

In that situation, they have the option, but not the obligation to exercise Paragraph 21 in a way that's unfavourable to you. Possibly Paragraph 23 would kick in. The actual result is at their discretion and hence indeterminate.

@PeterGreen You make it sound like he needs to. His US passport will be just fine.

No, you'll be fine as long as it's valid for your whole visit.
As stated by Timatic, the database used by airlines:
Passports and other documents accepted for entry must be
valid for the period of intended stay.
