(IsraelNN.com) Former Foreign Minister, Defense Minister, and ambassador Moshe Arens spoke to INN TV's Yoni Kempinski about the UN's latest criticism of Israel. What he recommends as the first stage in Israel's response: “Don't get excited about it. It's 'nothing to get excited about.”

Arens also has advice for Israel's government regarding United States pressure. Israel's leaders must understand that they run a sovereign country, he says, and sometimes, they must say “no” to Obama.
