" Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu says his government is ready to resume peace talks with the Palestinians. But Netanyahu is not taking the same approach that the US is advocating. White House correspondent Wendell Goler reports on the simmering tensions between the longtime allies."

" Two weeks before President Obama meets with Israel's conservative prime minister Netanyahu. Moderate President Shimon Peres came to Washington to lay the groundwork there. Across town at a conference of the country's largest pro Israel lobby. Vice president Biden spoke of a wide range of Israeli political opinions and suggested how much work there has to do."

" Israel has to work toward two state solution. You're not gonna like I say this but not build more settlements dismantle existing outpost and allow the Palestinians free -- movement based on their first action."

" It was a change in tone but not in substance of the Bush Administration policy reaffirmed that a three way summit in Annapolis in 2007. Prime minister Netanyahu has not publicly endorsed the two state solution because members of his government oppose it instead in a satellite address to a -- he suggested a new approach."

" She's pursuing. A triple track towards peace between Israel and the Palestinians. A political -- a security truck. And economically."

" But Torres says even though Netanyahu hasn't endorsed the Palestinian state he has promised to honor Israel's past commitments."

" Good news government except that -- And go -- time it's."

" Meanwhile the White House is denying reports the president believes ending Iran nuclear weapons quest hinges on peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians. The claim by Israeli TV stations based on a private meeting chief of staff Rahm Emanuel had with -- donors on Sunday. Administration officials suggest the Manuel said US allies like Jordan's King Abdullah whose country has more Palestinian refugees -- Jordanians would find it much easier to support tough sanctions on Iran with progress toward mideast peace."

" I think it's a pretty obvious point that. Well if we we we can make progress on one it will help. On the other but we can do both so it's. Shimon Peres also says Israel should support president Obama's attempt to engage Iran but he says if it works that would be better. He didn't address the price of failure. At the White House Wendell Goler Fox News."
