Foreign Ministry: Israel Tried to Raise Awareness of Perils of Iran Accord
(Times of Israel) Israeli Foreign Ministry Director-General Dore Gold told Army Radio Thursday that Israel had tried to raise awareness about the perils of the nuclear deal with Iran. He rejected the suggestion that Obama's success in mustering enough support to uphold a veto of an anti-deal vote was a rout for Israel. "Most of Congress is against the deal," Gold said. "The Israeli message was significant and remains significant and was well received, among the American public too." He added that the purpose was to express the deep concern by all parties in Israel, including the government and the opposition.
