Sen. Lieberman: Obama Should Define How to Stop Iran

(Jerusalem Post) Hilary Leila Krieger - U.S. Sen. Joseph Lieberman (I-Conn.) encouraged President Obama on Monday to clearly define America's red lines on Iran's nuclear program. Lieberman told the Jerusalem Post that "the more the president can define what it means to support a policy of preventing Iran from getting nuclear weapons, the more he will raise the confidence level of the government of Israel that it doesn't have to be forced to take action unilaterally." He said a unilateral Israeli military strike is "not the best way" to deal with the Iranian threat. "It ought to be led by the United States of America, which has the most significant military capabilities to carry this off and can do it in a way that will not have adverse political consequences for anybody, particularly Israel, in the Middle East."
