Hi there,

Can you donate $10 per month to support Democracy Now!’s independent journalism all year long? Since our very first broadcast in 1996, we’ve refused to take government or corporate funding, because nothing is more important to us than our editorial independence—especially in this unprecedented election year. When Democracy Now! covers war and peace or the climate crisis, we’re not brought to you by the weapons manufacturers or the oil, gas, coal or nuclear companies. Our journalism is powered by YOU. But that means we can’t do our work without your support. Right now, a generous donor will TRIPLE your gift, which means your $10 donation this month will be worth $30 to Democracy Now! Please do your part right now. We’re all in this together. Thank you so much.
-Amy Goodman

Obama: U.S. and Israel in “Lockstep” on Iran

HeadlineFeb 06, 2012

President Obama said Sunday the United States is working in “lockstep” with Israel to deal with Iran’s disputed nuclear program. In an interview with NBC, Obama said he does not think that Israel has made a decision yet to attack Iran.

Matt Lauer of NBC: “Has Israel promised you that they would give you advanced warning to any such attacks, should they give you that warning?”

President Obama: “You know, I won’t go into the details of our conversations. I will say that we have closer military and intelligence consultation between our two countries than we ever have. And my number one priority continues to be the security of the United States, but also the security of Israel, and we are going to make sure that we work in lockstep as we proceed to try to solve this, hopefully diplomatically.”
