"Netanyahu defends Iran nuclear claims in face of criticism"

According to CNN, tensions between Iran and Israel continue to grow when Israel Prime Minister, Netanyahu, makes a public presentation accusing Iran of having a secret nuclear program. Israel is claiming that nobody knows as much about Iran as they do. They have documents that prove Iran is developing nuclear weapons. However, what he shared was nothing new to the public. According to the former CIA and National Security Agent, the news he shared was "old news". Therefore, Iran Prime Minister responds to Israel's accusations by calling it propaganda. The speech was given in English to President Trump in order to persuade him to continue the Iran Deal which waives sanctions of Tehran. President Trumps has responded by agreeing with Israel and is now looking further into the document accusations about Iran's weapons.
