Ehud Barak heads for US for talks on Iran

Israeli Defence Minister Ehud Barak was to travel to the United States for talks on curbing Iran's nuclear programme and reviving the Middle East peace process, military radio said.
Meanwhile, the top US military officer warned on Monday that any strike against Iran would not be "decisive" in countering Tehran's nuclear program.
Admiral Mike Mullen, the chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he supported using diplomatic and economic pressure against Iran and repeated his view that military action could carry "unintended consequences."
"No strike, however effective, will be in and of itself decisive," Mullen told a press conference after recently returning from a visit to the Middle East.
