Biden: U.S. will not block Israeli strike on Iran

Says Jewish state 'has sovereign right' to choose own path

By Aaron Klein

JERUSALEM – The U.S. will not stand in the way if Prime Minister
Benjamin Netanyahu believes Israeli military action is needed to
eliminate the Iranian nuclear threat, Vice President Joe Biden said
during an interview with ABC News today.

The statements mark the first time the Obama administration has openly
put on the table a possible Israeli military strike against Iran.

“Look, Israel can determine for itself – it's a sovereign nation –
what's in their interest and what they decide to do relative to Iran
and anyone else,” Biden told ABC's George Stephanoupolos in a pre-taped
interview.

Stephanoupolos asked if Israel can still attack without U.S. approval.

“Whether we agree or not,” replied the vice president.
