Haaretz reports:

Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday launched an unprecedented verbal attack on the U.S. government over its stance on the Iranian nuclear program. “The world tells Israel ‘wait, there’s still time’. And I say, ‘Wait for what? Wait until when?’ Those in the international community who refuse to put red lines before Iran don’t have a moral right to place a red light before Israel,” Netanyahu told reporters on Tuesday. “Now if Iran knows that there is no red line. If Iran knows that there is no deadline, what will it do? Exactly what it’s doing. It’s continuing, without any interference, towards obtaining nuclear weapons capability and from there, nuclear bombs,” he said. . . On Monday, speaking to reporters in Washington, State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said, “It is not useful to be … setting deadlines one way or another” or to outline “red lines” for how far the U.S. can allow Iran’s nuclear program to advance. She repeated that President Barack Obama has stated unequivocally that the United States will not allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon, and that U.S. support for Israel’s security is unwavering. But she said she would not speak about ongoing discussions between the U.S. and Israel, calling such talk “not helpful for the diplomacy.” U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton also said the administration is not prepared to make such a public commitment. “We’re not setting deadlines,” Clinton said in an interview with Bloomberg Radio.

This comes weeks after an “explosive confrontation” between Netanyahu and US Ambassador Dan Shapiro on the administration’s Iran policy. Jeffrey Goldberg recounts an interview Rep. Mike Rogers (R-MI) gave about the argument. Rogers is the chair the House Intelligence Committee and witnessed the exchange:
