Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Tuesday his country
is not planning a war with Iran and that Tehran's concerns over such
a conflict are the result of the threat of additional international
sanctions, reports The Associated Press.
Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad said Tuesday he believes
Israel or its allies are considering a military strike against his
country, which has thus far failed to prove that its nuclear program
is peaceful.
"We are not planning any wars," Netanyahu said, speaking in Moscow
after meetings urging Russian officials to approve tougher sanctions
against Iran.
In Tehran, Ahmadinejad said Israel is "seeking to start a war next
spring or summer, although their decision is not final yet," without
saying where he got that information.
Netanyahu dismissed the talk as "manipulations."
