Obama: Israel Should Sign Nuke Treaty

Obama: Israel Should Sign Nuke Treaty


President Barack Obama managed to avoid Israel's nuclear program nearly entirely for the high profile nuclear summit, but was unable to successfully dodge a question at the closing press conference about Israel's non-membership in the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT).
