Tags: presidential election 

Democratic presidential hopeful Barack Obama has told Israeli television that Israel's security would remain a priority should he win the race to the White House.

I think that what people can be assured of is that we will keep Israel's security a priority," Obama told Channel 10.

He added: "The bond between the United States and Israel is unbreakable."
