French diplomat pans ‘unrealistic’ Israeli position on Iran

An unnamed French diplomat criticizes Israel’s position on the Iranian nuclear program as “unrealistic,” and says Netanyahu went “too far” in his Congress address on the issue.

“Israel has marginalized itself. In November 2013, we were working with them and they played the game. They didn’t take unrealistic positions,” the diplomat tells Reuters.

“But here they have gone too far. We told them to play their part so they could influence a final accord, but they have taken unrealistic positions.”
