Amid tension between the U.S. and Israel over Iran's nuclear ambitions, an official Israeli government twitter account linked Tuesday to an article criticizing President Obama for "failing to put Israel at ease."

"Israeli official: Obama doesn't give us same sense Clinton did that he'll be there if things go bad – Times of #Israel," the official Twitter feed of the Israeli government press office posted.
