President Obama is scheduled to meet with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the White House today to discuss Iran’s alleged nuclear program. On Sunday, Obama addressed AIPAC, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee. He vowed support for Israel and said the United States is ready to act against Iran — with all “elements of American power.”
President Obama: “A nuclear-armed Iran is completely counter to Israel’s security interests. But it is also counter to the national security interests of the United States. Indeed, the entire world has an interest in preventing Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.”
