Not following the most basic guidelines before a graphic article about an alleged gang rape at uva. The fallout and apology ahead. Good morning. Welcome to early start. It is monday april 6th. Im christine romans. This morning, new perspective from key heperspective in the deal with Irans Nuclear program. And the israeli reluctance hashed out last week in switzerland. The president said he is quote absolutely committed to making sure the israelis maintain the qualitative military edge over iran and their arab neighbors. The president reinforced his argument that the deal is the best way to protect israels security. Something he says he takes seriously. I would consider it a failure on my part. A fundamental failure on my presidency if on my watch, or as a consequence of work i have done, israel was more vulnerable vulnerable. It was an all out lobbying offensive from all sides which included the israeli Prime Minister slamming that deal on cnn. We is more from the white house. Reporter christine, the Prime Minister says this is a bad deal. He wants more pressure and sanctions on iran. He is working with congress. He is trying to get them to block this deal and hold off for a better one. He is lobbying members directly. Revealing he spoken to 2 3 of the members of congress personally. The white house anticipated this. Thats why they are putting up president obama calling members of congress and the top congressional leadership and reaching out to world leaders. The two leaders, Prime Minister netanyahu and president obama have had a tense and documented relationship. In the interview with Cnns Jim Acosta the Prime Minister said the opposition to the bill is not in direct reference to that. I always respect the presidency of the United States and this president of the United States. As the Prime Minister of the one and only jewish state, when i see a country of a terrorist regime committed to our destruction and having a clear paths to the bomb, it is my duty to speak out. Reporter there are many in congress representceptive to netanyahu. They say it doesnt do enough to rollback the iran program. One Top Senate Democrat dianne feinstein, had some blunt criticism of netanyahu. She says she believes this campaign he is waging to derail this deal is doing more harm than good. I think he said what he had to say. To be candid with you, this can back fire on him. I wish that he would contain himself because he has put out no real alternative in his speech to the congress. No real alternative. Since then no real alternative. Reporter congress will be back in washington after recess next week and there are a whole series of bills lined up and waiting for president obama to challenge him over the details of the deal.

Christian, a local politician saying that his son was one of the shooters. Tell us about that. Reporter yes. In his speech the kenyan president said that the problem with this attack is that many involved were deeply embedded in society. This is one of the four main attackers that went into the university to commit this crime. A 20 somethingyearold who went to university and worked for a short time at a bank. His father said he did not see him since. That was about 2013. That is a serious problem for the kenyan authorities. This is a homegrown terrorist. This is not someone across the border. This is someone radicalized in kenya. Christian, thank you for that in garissa.
