Peres: Moussa should ask why Iran wants to destroy Israel

By JPOST.COM STAFF
President Shimon Peres on Sunday responded to Amr Moussa's statement that Israel, and not Iran, was the major nuclear threat, and suggested that the Arab League secretary general focus on intentions and not weapons. Moussa "must first ask Iran why it wants to wipe Israel off the map and then worry about nuclear weapons," Peres, who is currently attending the World Economic Forum in Jordan, told reporters.
