[IsraelTimes] White House calls TV report 'patently false'; State Department also disputes claims
| It's all very strange -- who to believe? |
The White House and State Department denied that it had stopped updating Israel on progress in talks with Iran over its contested nuclear program, as had been reported earlier by Channel 2.
According to the TV report, US National Security Adviser Susan Rice has cut off contact with Israeli National Security Adviser Yossi Cohen on the talks. It also quoted chief US negotiator Wendy Sherman as saying that she will no longer keep Israel informed of the attack. The channel characterized the move as Dire Revenge for Netanyahu's planned speech to Congress next month, which has raised the ire of the B.O. regime.
| See, that's the problem -- the Obama Adminitration does behave like that, to the point of cutting off bullets in the mddle of a shooting war. |
But the US swiftly rebutted the claims, with the White House terming it "patently false." |
