The Jerusalem Post published an article by Herb Keinon headlined "Netanyahu takes case against Iran from White House to UN."
"After presenting his case against Iran privately to US President Barack Obama for a few hours on Monday, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu will condense but dramatize his argument and take it to the UN General Assembly on Tuesday," the article begins.
"It is unlikely, however, that Netanyahu will openly come out against direct US-Iranian talks, especially since a CNN poll on Monday found that three-quarters of Americans say they favor direct diplomatic negotiations with Iran."
"Netanyahu has been careful in the past not to come out against direct negotiations with Iran – neither US-Iran talks nor talks between Iran and the world powers known as the P5+1, which include the US, Russia, China, Britain, France and Germany," the article reads.
"What he is likely to stress in his UN speech, however, as well as in a media blitz afterward, is that those talks must have a clear deadline and not be open-ended, that the sanctions must not be relieved – and should indeed be stepped up – until Tehran takes concrete steps to dismantle its nuclear program, and that a credible military threat must remain in the background," the author believes.
