Netanyahu said Wednesday that "Israel shares the view" that when the deal expires "the breakout time for Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon will be zero." Breakout time refers to how long it takes to build a bomb if allowed to go ahead full speed.
Obama has said that under last week's framework deal between world powers and Iran, the breakout time would be at least a year.
On Tuesday, Obama told NPR News that the fear is that soon after that expiration date, Iran's breakout time "would have shrunk almost down to zero." Nonetheless, he defended the deal.
