Israel's Defense Minister Ehud Barak said that the United States has a highly classified report, possibly a National Intelligence Estimate, on Iran that backs up what Israel has been saying.

Whether there really is a report or not, this doesn't increase US government love for Israel.
Update: Here's the US rebuttal. No change in evaluation that Iran is nowhere near having a nuclear weapon.
