?Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to the US Congress will not stop a nuclear deal with Iran, Israeli opposition leader Isaac Herzog of the Labour Party says.
“The speech does not have an impact on the talks, instead it deepens the divide between Israel and the United States,” Herzog, Netanyahu’s chief rival in March 17 elections, told news site ynet.
Economy Minister Naftali Bennett of the right-leaning Jewish Home party was, however, among those praising Netanyahu’s remarks. “The Israeli people stand behind you,” he wrote on his Facebook page.
