TEHRAN, Iran (AP) - Iran's supreme leader on Wednesday criticized what he called President Barack Obama's "unconditional" support for Israel, saying he was following the same mistaken policies as the Bush administration.
The comments from Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, who has final say on all state matters, underscored the difficulties Obama faces as he seeks to improve relations with Iran given the deep disagreements on both sides on issues like Israel and Iran's nuclear program.
Khamenei said Obama spoke of change during his campaign but supported Israel's devastating three-week offensive against the Gaza Strip earlier this year that killed some 1,300 Palestinians.
