Report: U.S. believes Israel sees Iran nuclear problem 'too narrowly'
A New York Times report says Obama administration see approach of Defense Minister Ehud Barak for stopping the Iranian program as 'too narrow.'
By Barak Ravid
Differences between Israel and the U.S. over Iran are currently focused on what Defense Minister Ehud Barak has coined the “zone of immunity” of Iran’s nuclear program, the New York Times reported on Thursday. The White House and the U.S. administration in general do not agree with Barak’s use of the term, and even see it as “too narrow,” the New York Times said. U.S. officials told the newspaper that, as opposed to Barak, Prime Minister Netanyahu does not use the term “zone of immunity,” at least not in public. The newspaper reported that one official thought that Netanyahu's remarks recently that Israeli officials should “shut up” about Iran was a welcome move. "I think that’s good advice,” one of the American officials told the New York Times.
