Bush: NIE Means Iran Is a Threat
[White House] In an interview with Yonit Levi of Israel Channel 2 News, President Bush said: "If I were an Israeli, I would take the words of the Iranian president seriously. And as President of the United States, I take him seriously....I said that we will defend our ally - no ands, ifs or buts." "One of the concerns I'm sure among the Israeli population is whether this intelligence estimate that came out, what does it mean. It means to me that Iran was a threat and Iran is a threat."
