Binyamin Netanyahu’s aides launch stinging rebuke to Israeli president Shimon Peres
Prime minister’s office says Shimon Peres should not speak out on Iran as he is too prone to mistakes
Aides to Israeli prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu launched a stinging rebuke to the country’s president, Shimon Peres, after he said that Israel should not act alone in launching military action against Iran’s nuclear programme.
“Shimon Peres forgets what the role of the president of Israel is,” officials from Netanyahu’s office were quoted in the Israeli media as saying. The aides offered examples from the past when they said Peres’s judgment had been wrong.
