Israel foreign minister: Don't take eyes off Iran

Associated Press

Vienna: Israel's foreign minister says Iran is using the smoke screen of Mideast unrest to advance both its missile and nuclear programs.

Avigdor Lieberman also urged would-be participants of the pro-Palestinian flotilla to give up their plans and deliver their aid to UN supervised ports for distribution.

Lieberman spoke to reporters on Thursday after meeting with Austrian Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger. Spindelegger said Austria had not yet made up its mind whether to support UN recognition of a Palestinian state, adding he preferred a joint EU approach to the issue.
