he administration of President Barack Obama has pressed Israel to end opposition to a U.S. reconciliation effort with Iran.
Administration sources said Obama has urged both Israel and American Jewish leaders to support his reconciliation drive toward Teheran.
On Oct. 29, the White House briefed Jewish and pro-Israeli groups regarding the latest negotiations with Iran.
In a tense one-hour meeting, the groups, which included the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, were assured that Obama would not allow Iran to develop a nuclear weapon.
