JPost – The White House defended itself Monday from GOP criticism that US President Barack Obama was minimizing Israel’s concerns on Iran and downgrading its status as one of America’s closest allies.
White House Press Secretary Jay Carney stressed that Israel is indeed America’s “closest ally in the region” and that the US shares Jerusalem’s concerns about Iran.
