Israel’s Iran crisis unites bipartisan US lawmakers during their trip to the Middle East

Exclusive: The top of the parliament Iran Hawks Two members of the delegation were about to depart from the Middle East for the US on Wednesday when they told Fox News Digital what they were seeing on the ground.

Rep. Zach Nun (R-Iowa) and D-Calif MP Jimmy Panetta said they visited Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and as of Tuesday they were in the UAE, meeting with leaders to discuss the armed conflict between Israel and Iran.

“Over the last week we have only seen dramatic escalations, particularly. Iran is threatening Region,” he said. Iran’s maximum pressure campaign lawIt consists of 47 leveraged by President Donald Trump against Iran’s “Super Leader” Ayatollah Ali Hosseini Khamenei.

Nun, a retired US Air Force colonel who conducted Inter reconnaissance missions off the coast of Russia and China, said General Eric “Gorilla” Kleela had “full support” of him. Defense Secretary Pete Hegses On Tuesday he indicated that the Iranian strategy would be postponed to Commander Centcom.

“(Kurira) makes it very clear here that Iran needs to take off-ramps from its nuclear enrichment program. In fact, he was one of those things that highlighted the real threats that come from both nuclear Iran, its neighbouring Israel, and other countries in the Middle East.

Arab allies like the United Arab Emirates recognize Iran presents the biggest “existential threat” to peace in the Middle East, Nun said, adding that as a veteran of the war on terrorism, he does not want our service members to return to combat in the region.

However, 40,000 units are stationed in non-combat roles in the region, and are within Iranian weapon range when Tehran escalates.

Nunn warned that the porous southern border was open to the possibility that Iranian proxy could already be in the US, citing reports that Tehran was somehow connected to the attempted assassination of Trump in Pennsylvania.

Panetta, the son of former CIA director Leon Panetta, said the reason they came together in a bipartisan manner that they may not be politically opposed on all issues, but that Congress is united with Middle Eastern allies.

“Here we have a real opportunity for Arab partners and Israel to stand together to deter Iran. The United States should not be the police officers of the world. Only the United States has the specific capabilities that can be provided in this scenario.

Panetta said he hopes the trip will help other countries lay a stronger foundation for coordination. Abraham Accord Forged by Trump in his first term.

“The conflict between Israel and Iran broke out on Thursday. We were going to come here before Friday. And such things changed a few things and unfortunately prevented us from going to Israel. But we were able to hold a very substantial meeting with some of our leadership in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and before we fly tonight in Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and here.

“And what we’ve consistently heard is that no one wants nuclear-armed Iran.”

Like Nun, Panetta doesn’t want boots on the ground. He says that, as Trump hopes, changes must come when Tehran’s government collapses or surrenders, or “from within.”

Members of both parties are not thinking of causing a change of government by force, he said, but they want Tehran’s nuclear ambition to be defeated.

And when it comes to concerns about stability, it will follow Iranians at that point after seeing strong people sway around and around after being expelled, the lawmaker said.

“The purpose of the Israeli bombing was to destroy their nuclear capabilities, not because of the change of government,” Panetta said.

“But if people see this as an opportunity, I think it’s basically a time more appropriate for Iranians to stand up than ever before.”

Given the unusual bipartisan agreement on the Iranian issue in an otherwise fractured political environment, Democrats hope for substantial debate to resolve pressing issues like Iran’s nuclear capabilities, “eternal war,” and added that Israel wants substantial debate to protect its rights.

“(These) are bipartisan issues that we think can work with,” Panetta said.
