The policy of requiring that a visa be applied for in person at the US embassy for an Israeli nuclear scientist or engineer is a reasonable one. A blanket denial of all visas to the US for such people is not a reasonable policy.

The latter point was the issue in the original report and was attributed to the Obama Administratio.

I would call this a clarification rather than a detail requiring a full correction.

Still, it reflects well on Mr. Simon that he issued it.

Perhaps he should summarize the situation again for us to be sure we have the correct points and conclusions.
