US defense secretary: Israel "isolated"

Leon Panetta, the new US defense secretary, stated his country is committed to ensuring Israel maintains a "qualitative military edge" in the Middle East, but warned that the latter is becoming increasingly isolated. Panetta, who starts an official visit in Israel on Monday, said he planned to use the trip to reaffirm American security commitments to Israel and try to improve its deteriorating ties with Turkey and Egypt.
