Washington rejects Israel's request for bunker busters
Washington has turned down Israeli requests for a large numbers of GBU-28 bunker busting bombs and permission to use an air corridor to Iran.
The Israelis were told that they have to approach Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki for permission if they want to fly through Iraq to bomb Iran.
Also rejected was a request for Boeing 767 refueling planes to replace Israel's outdated refueling tanker.
