t any time, security and defense should be most important thing for a country. Each of us need peace rather than war, development but not seclusion. If one person or country wants respect, he should go with this trend.

President Barack Obama says Israel is losing international credibility over whether it is serious about a peace settlement that includes a Palestinian state.


 

Obama said diplomacy, not military action, is the only way to stop Iran from building a nuclear bomb. He said he understood Israel's concerns about a nuclear-armed Iran, but he has said many times that Israeli security is a top U.S. priority.

Netanyahu's office did not immediately comment on the Obama interview. Speaking at an Israeli missile defense drill earlier Tuesday, Netanyahu stressed the need for self-sufficiency:

"When it comes to Israel's security, I rely, first of all, on ourselves."
