(Photo : Reuters) U.S. President Barack Obama (L) listens as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivers a statement to the media from the Colonnade outside the Oval Office of the White House in Washington September 1, 2010.
U.S. President Barack Obama declared that America will continue to protect Israel from Iran's tenacious production of nuclear weapons, giving more emphasis on America's stand on Iran's nuclear framework agreement.
In a statement, Obama said the nuclear deal will serve as a message to Iran that whoever messes with Israel will also risk messing with America. He added that failing to protect Israel during its vulnerable moment would be a failure on his part.

"What we will be doing, even as we enter this deal, is sending a clear message to the Iranians and to the entire region that if anyone messes with Israel, America will be there," Obama said.
He explained that this decision to be Israel's strong protector and ally in the Middle East is more of a personal issue for him. He also emphasized that his administration is doing its best to look into the interest and safety of the Jewish people as far as the threats of Iran's nuclear weaponries are concern.
Obama explained that the nuclear deal with Iran is being dealt with utmost diplomacy. The framework agreement, however, should be geared towards bringing to an end on Iran's nuclear threat.
Obama added that America is strong enough to risk diplomatic deals just to put a halt on Iran's production of nuclear weapons. According to him, doing so will help stabilize the peace and order situation in the Middle East.
Iran will not be able to obtain a nuclear weapon under his watch, the U.S. president averred. He said he wants everyone to live in peace and stop the attacks on their allies.
Prior to Obama's declaration of strong connection with Israel, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a press statement that the Iran's nuclear deal is dangerous because this will only give Iran more chances to produce many nuclear bombs.
