Fake.
Not fake:

"I told him my position and Bush agreed," Netanyahu told Israel Radio.
But, misleading. The first paragraph is a personal interpretation by the author, of the last line I emphasized paired with the second paragraph.

It says so in the comments and I have to agree.
This story was supposedly written by "Wire Services," but Presscue.com is the only place where it appears. None of the hundreds of news sites indexed by Google News are carrying this story.

It's a fake, folks.
I am from Tel Aviv, and I listen to Israel Radio. Benjamin Netanyahu and Bush did not agree on "nuking" Iran. President Bush only agreed with Netanyahu's stance that a pre-emptive strike against Iran's nuclear facilities was necessary.
It was clearly taken completely out of context. A preemptive strike on nuclear facilities does not equal "nuking Iran". I give props to the discerner, because you can usually tell sensationalized propaganda like this from the truth by whether or not any other news groups in the world pick it up.

President George W. Bush hasn't accomplished much on his voyage to the Middle East, but he did take the time to inflict another wound on the entire U.S. intelligence community—and on the credibility of anything he might ever again say about the world.
In the latest Newsweek, Michael Hirsh reports that, during a private conversation with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, Bush "all but disowned" the agencies' Dec. 3 National Intelligence Estimate on Iran. A "senior administration official who accompanied Bush" on the trip confided to Hirsh that Bush "told the Israelis that he can't control what the intelligence community says, but that [the NIE's] conclusions don't reflect his own views."
