Washington's policy of briefing Israel on progress in negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program has not changed, senior US officials told The Jerusalem Post on Sunday, despite reports to the contrary in Israeli media.
Channel 2 reported earlier in the day the US would halt its briefings to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in light of his planned speech to Congress. Netanyahu is expected to criticize the state of the global diplomatic effort, which is geared towards crafting a comprehensive nuclear agreement.
"Conversations continue with Israel on the Iran nuclear negotiations," one senior State Department official said. "Under Secretary [of State for Political Affairs Wendy] Sherman met with Israeli NSA Cohen and Minister for Intelligence and Strategic Planning Steinitz in Munich and will see NSA Cohen again this week."
The official noted that the Iran talks were, "obviously," the main topic of conversation.
"And Secretary [of State John] Kerry continues his conversations with Prime Minister Netanyahu about this issue, as has always been the case," the official continued.

The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Good Lord, what a nasty business.
Juvenile pricks.
Obama is truly a man child.
Sounds like the Israelis are being Grubered by our Community Organizer-In-Chief.
Typical high school attitude and intelligence that plagues this regime.
Please allow me to modify that. Attitude is high school. Intelligence is grade school.
...and don’t be surprised when Bibi nukes your homies back to the stone age without telling you first, you Marxist, Mooslim, Kenyan, Steaming Pant Load Sissy Boy.
This is hardly the first time Zero has tried to keep Israel in the dark over these talks.
Fortunately, Israel has other friends in these talks to keep them updated. But even if they didn’t, it’s incumbent on the diplomats to prove to Israel that they can stop Iran and soon.
Otherwise there will be much more than a mere speech for Zero and his supporters to be outraged about!
There is more going on with this whole thing, than we know about.
We know that the Obamunists/Soros are heavily involved in trying to defeat Netanyahu.
We know they are REALLY P.O.’d about Bibi caming to give a speech to congress, without Obamunist approval, and they are trying all kinds of pressure to stop it, discredit it, minimalize it.
What are they so afraid of, that Bibi might say?
Or reveal?????
Our allies don’t trust us and our enemies don’t fear us.
My how far we have fallen in six years.

Israel can now save some time. The Obama sock puppets would just lie to Netanyahu anyway. Under Obama, the US has switched sides in the War on Terror and is an active enabler of Islamists and Iran, in particular.
As Israel has a fairly large number of Jews who are native Farsi-speakers and culturally Persian, Israeli intelligence does not lack information about what is going on in Iran.
What is trying to be hidden is how much the USA is being committed to helping out the mullahs.
Israel already knows the US is selling them down the river, so no need for updates.
“US to halt updates to Israel on Iran nuclear talks in response to Netanyahu speech plans”
“Washington’s policy of briefing Israel on progress in negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program has not changed.”
The second statement is not a denial of the first, although it looks like it was crafted to seem so. They could have said, “we will not halt updates, unconditionally”, but they apparently didn’t.
Does it matter much? Who could trust this regime to do anything other than continue on its path to enabling/defending/protecting/subsidizing/financing/building up the iranian islamoNazi nuclear ICBMs arsenal?
Then Israel should not bother to update the White House on its plan to nuke Iran.
I despise our president. What a childish punk. Sooo glad he has a college degree!
