Saturday, during an appearance on Fox News Channel’s continuing coverage of Iran’s assault on Israel, Sen. Joni Ernst ( R- IA ) said Iran’s direct attack on Israel then raises concerns about Iran’s nuclear skills.
The Iowa Republican suggested that the strike might have a cold impact on both Israel and its citizens.
She said that it is unprecedented for Iran to attack directly against Israel and launch nuclear missiles. You have to know how close they are to having those atomic skills, as I have heard from other coworkers and people in the area. They want Israelis to live in anxiety and be wondering what will happen next.
However, Iran’s actions are exceptional, and we must work together to stop this danger, Ernst continued. ” Now, we do notice Saudi Arabia stepping up. Jordan seems to be stepping up. We want to bless those Muslim countries that have partnered with Israel and are associated with the Abraham Accords. This is part of the DEFEND Act, which is republican. I was the Senate’s leader in that endeavor some years back. However, to unite these countries through an air defense system to protect against Iran. When America chooses to direct, we see the achievement. And this is what we need right now: National management that will stand up and support Israel.
