Biden, Mullen split on Israel and Iran?

Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he was concerned about the unintended consequences of an Israeli military strike against Iran's nuclear facilities.

That's a sharp departure from comments that Vice President Joe Biden made earlier today.

”I have been for some time been concerned about any strike on Iran. I worry that it would be very destabilizing not just in and of itself, but the unintended consequences of a strike like that,” Mullen said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”

“At the same time, I’m one that thinks Iran should not have nuclear weapons. I think that’s very destabilizing… I remain very concerned about what Iran is doing. They continue to be a state-sponsor of terrorism, they continue to develop nuclear weapons. They have been a destabilizing force in both Iraq and Afghanistan.”
