US Foreign Policy Determined by Israel
US Foreign Policy Determined by Israel

TEHRAN (FNA)- Richard Silverstein revealed in a report released by the Eurasia Review Newsletter that the US officials coordinate every move they take in their foreign policy with the Zionist officials to have their permission and companionship

"Besides the exposure of US strategy for all the world to see, the leak made it appear that the US consulted with Israel before advancing any policy initiatives involving Iran. It puffed up Israel at US expense and probably told the truth-it's often hard to tell who's driving US policy more, our own State Department of Israel," Silverstein said.

The following is an excerpt of his report in Eurasia Review Newsletter.

In 2009, Haaretz published a detailed report concerning Iran. Until tonight, the original publication hasn't been known (except to a few Israeli and US diplomats who were named in it and the newspaper that published it).

When this story was first published, the US diplomats named in it blew their stacks. They severely reprimanded the Israeli foreign ministry for the leak. It promptly went about searching for the leaker. Suspicion immediately fell on Alon Bar, who served at the time as director of strategic initiatives in the foreign ministry in Israel. Part of the reason was that he was named in the article itself (Hebrew version only) as one of the diplomats involved in the story.

Bar was fired all the while protesting his innocence. The Shin Bet was brought in to investigate and subsequently cleared him of any wrongdoing. He then rejoined the MFA and as a sort of consolation prize, was named ambassador to Spain. The domestic intelligence agency continued its probe and attention finally landed on Dan Arbell, deputy ambassador in the Israeli embassy in Washington. When approached, he admitted his involvement and he was fired. The MFA announced this development two days ago.
