Barak: Our connection with US central to Israel's security
None
Defense Minister Ehud Barak said "The connection between us and the US is strong and remains the foundation of Israel's security."
During a press brief, he said that "We are the only ones responsible for our fate and the future of the State of Israel. We alone will decide on fateful issues, but we must never lose the ability to act in harmony with the US. We turn to the US when there is a Goldstone report, we turn to the US when intervention is required in the UN Security Council, and it is in the US that we found support during every crisis."
