The Wall Street Journal on Wednesday quoted senior US and Arab officials as saying that the Obama administration and Iran “have moved into an effective state of détente over the past year”, as they hold direct nuclear talks and face a common threat from the Islamic State.

The report comes a day after The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg, long considered close to the Obama administration, claimed that White House officials called Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu “a coward” on tackling Iran’s nuclear program, despite his frequent rhetoric on the issue.
 
According to the Wall Street Journal, the officials say that “recent months have ushered in a change as the two countries have grown into alignment on a spectrum of causes”, at the forefront of which are “peaceful political transitions” in Iraq and Afghanistan, tackling the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
 
 

US officials also told the paper that the US has clarified to Iran that ongoing strikes against Islamic State targets in Syria will not also target forces belonging to Syrian President Bashar Assad, a long-standing Iranian ally who is currently battling opposition fighters - including Islamic State - inside his country.

Le Times de Londres refuse de passer la publicité d’Elie Wiesel, laquelle était déjà passée dans le New York Times, le Washington Post et le Wall Street Journal. (Ce qui prouve donc, kof kof, que les Anglais sont antisémites.)

The London Times refused to run an ad featuring Nobel Prize winner Elie Wiesel speaking out against Hamas’ use of children as human shields.

The ad sponsored by The Values Network, which was founded by Rabbi Shmuley Boteach, has run in The New York Times, Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal, among other U.S. newspapers. The refusal was first reported by the New York Observer.

The London Times refused the ad because “the opinion being expressed is too strong and too forcefully made and will cause concern amongst a significant number of Times readers,” according to a statement from a representative of the newspaper, the Observer reported.
