"This entire thing is very far off."

"... Barak was speaking on Israel's Army Radio before a planned visit Thursday by U.S. armed forces chief General Martin Dempsey that has triggered speculation Washington will press Israel to delay any action against Tehran's nuclear program.Barak's remarks suggest that Iran, which denies trying to make a nuclear bomb while defying international censure of its secretive uranium enrichment and missile projects, has not yet advanced past what Israel might deem a critical threshold.
Asked if the United States has asked Israel to tell them before any assault against Iran, Barak said, "We haven't made any decision to do this. This entire thing is very far off."..."
