Dermer: Israel Hopes for "Dramatic Change" in U.S. Policy on Iran
(Jerusalem Post) Michael Wilner - The Israeli government hopes that the coming weeks "will bring about a dramatic change" in the trajectory of the nuclear deal with Iran, Israel's U.S. ambassador, Ron Dermer, said on Tuesday in Washington. At his annual Jewish New Year reception, Dermer noted that the U.S. Mideast peace team is "very quietly working to advance a serious process" toward regional peace. He also called on lawmakers to pass the Taylor Force Act, to cut U.S. aid to the Palestinian Authority if it continues to compensate the families of terrorists and murderers convicted in Israel.
