Who's side is this Admin. on? Israel Blames U.S. for Media Reports About Iran Strategy

“It’s our very strong belief, as President Obama conveyed to the Israelis, that it is not in anyone’s interest for them to take unilateral action,” Clinton said. “It is in everyone’s interest for us to seriously pursue at this time the diplomatic path.”
That has certainly worked with the nut cases in Iran before.

Israel Blames U.S. for Media Reports About Iran Strategy - The Daily Beast

Insiders are denouncing reports in the U.S. press about military strategy on Iran—and pointing the finger at Washington. Do the disclosures compromise Israel’s security?

Top officials in Israel are charging that national-security leaks coming from the U.S. government are undermining Israel’s military options against Iran. “The problem is the Iranians are certainly paying close attention to these reports,” a senior Israeli official told The Daily Beast. “We are concerned about the leaks and we hope they are not intentional.”

The latest such leak appeared March 28 on Foreign Policy magazine’s website, claiming that Israel had been granted secret access to airbases in Azerbaijan near Iran’s northern border. The piecewas sourced to senior U.S. diplomats and military-intelligence officers.

In Washington the article was referred to in a conference call on March 30 between leaders of the American Jewish community and Deputy National Security Adviser Denis McDonough, according to notes of the call provided by a participant in the meeting. The first question McDonough was asked during the meeting was whether the Foreign Policy story was leaked to “undercut Israel.”
