http://www.haaretz.com/news/diplomacy-defense/.premium-1.668519The United States and other world powers haven't provided Israel with the details of the Iran nuclear deal, and especially the secret addendums concerning the agreements between Iran and the International Atomic Energy Agency, a top Israeli security official told lawmakers on Tuesday.
"Israel has yet to receive the addendums to Iran's agreement with the powers, despite promises," National Security Adviser Yossi Cohen told MKs at the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee.
Cohen stated that Israel is missing entire parts of the nuclear agreement, which makes assessing its consequences impossible. "We don't have the whole picture," Cohen said, according to two sources that were in attendance.
Cohen noted that Israel was still actively trying to thwart the agreement or at least trying to have some critical changes made to it.

Imagine that, a bad faith, external actor seeking to torpedo an agreement isn't being given all of the details in that agreement so it can leak them, misrepresent them, and use that information to destroy the agreement.
No one trusts the Israelis to use this information responsibly, and this is the logical outcome of that, and of Israel's bad faith behavior in general.

"Assessing the consequences is impossible because we don't have all the information"!
Well how come Netanyahu and just about every senior Israeli has already denounced the deal as a disaster? They seemed to have assessed the deal in their eyes.
No one wants to give the Israelis any more information because the Israelis have already made up their minds. It is pointless to try to placate them.

What a bunch of whining actors!
Guess what, Israel? You're done screwed the pooch, and now you want to call the shots?
No way. You're not a trusted partner no matter what our leaders say in public.
Israel has been sent to the kids table.

states that have signed the NPT.
