President Shimon Peres on Wednesday reportedly said that if diplomatic talks fail to bring to the halt of Iran's nuclear program, there are "other options," possibly hinting at a military strike. "Engagement is an attempt to achieve a goal. If this attempt will succeed, OK, but we don't have to cross out any other options," Reuters quoted Peres as telling Jewish leaders and diplomats in New York.
