The battle over sanctions

Israel’s Washington offensive on Monday is being portrayed by some as a “battle over sanctions.” Indeed, The Times of Israel’s Raphael Ahren reports that Netanyahu will use his meeting to urge the Americans not to let up on sanctions on Iran, arguing that the measures are what has forced the Islamic Republic to come to the table for a possible deal to curb uranium enrichment.

On Sunday, CBS aired an interview with John Kerry in which he promised that the US would need to see action, not just words, before it considered lifting economic penalties on Iran.
