U.S. Says Israel Rebuffed Talks on Security Cooperation
(McClatchy) Jonathan S. Landay and Lesley Clark - Israel has repeatedly rebuffed offers by the U.S. to discuss boosting security cooperation in the wake of the Iran nuclear deal, Obama administration officials said Thursday. A senior Israeli official responded Friday: "If this deal with Iran is going to make everything better and safer, why is there a need to offer Israel and other American allies in the region compensation? If there's a desire to offer compensation, there's an implicit recognition that this deal makes things less secure, not more secure."
