The United States won't give Israel a security aid package out of concern the Israelis would use it to attack Iran, diplomatic and security sources said.
U.S. and Israeli officials are said to have been discussing an Israeli request, which includes bunker-buster bombs, permission to use an air corridor, an advanced technological system and refueling planes, Haaretz reported Thursday.
In a series of meetings, U.S. officials told their Israeli counterparts that diplomacy would be used to try to persuade Iran to abandon its nuclear aspirations and that Israel didn't have U.S. approval to attack Iran, Harretz reported.
However, the United States did reportedly agree to beef up Israeli defensive systems, including an advanced U.S. radar system stationed in the Negev.
