Israel was a major topic of conversation on Wednesday night, John, and about midway through the debate, Lester Holt looked at me and said:
“Senator Scott, you're the president. You're on the phone in the Oval Office with the Prime Minister of Israel. You tell him what?”
I thought I’ve made this very clear to the American people already, but I guess not…
I would tell Prime Minister Netanyahu, not only do you have the responsibility, you have the right to wipe Hamas off of the map.
We will support you, we will be there with you, and will stand shoulder to shoulder. There will be no daylight.
But I will change the station a little bit and head back home to America. I will say to President Biden, diplomacy only is a weak strategy. Appeasement leads to war from President Obama to President Biden. Obama sent millions to Iran. Frankly, President Biden has sent billions to Iran.
That is why I've said that there's blood dripping from the hands of President Obama and President Biden. I would tell President Biden with great clarity, If you want to stop the 40 plus attacks on military personnel in the Middle East, you have to strike in Iran.
If you want to make a difference, you cannot just continue to have strikes in Syria on warehouses, you actually have to cut off the head of the snake and the head of the snake is Iran and not simply the proxies. In order for us to have a powerful response from America, we have to be in a position of strength.
As far as the United States, my foreign policy is simple. You cannot negotiate with evil. You have to destroy it.
However, Biden and the Democrats in charge refuse to take the necessary measures to keep America safe and Americans out of harm's way.
As president, I will ALWAYS do what’s best for our nation.
God Bless.
