Kerry: Netanyahu 'way over the top' on Iran nuclear deal [View all]

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4679987,00.html

US Secretary of State John Kerry lashed out at Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Tuesday night, saying the Israeli leader's claims about the nuclear deal signed with Iran were "way over the top."

"This is under attack by people who really don't know the terms of the agreement," Kerry told NBC News.

"What the critics of this plan never offer... is a realistic alternative," he said, displaying evident frustration. "It's wrong for people to think this doesn't have long-term accountability."

Kerry rejected these comments, saying, Netanyahu "said the same thing about the interim agreement, and he was wrong. The fact is that he's been practically making comments that are way over the top. He doesn't even know what the concessions are that we have not engaged in, because we haven't made concessions."
