The attacks on our ally, Israel, are despicable. I am taking action as Governor, and I am prepared to take action as President. Our US dollars should never be funneled toward a terrorist-backing regime.
Hey John,
Ron DeSantis was just asked about his thoughts on situation in Israel. In case you missed his answer and didn’t know, we wanted to FWD you over his response to the situation. See below:

Subject: This atrocity is personal to me
John,
The atrocity we’re seeing unfold in Israel is personal to me.
I served in Iraq starting in 2007 and the casualties our troops suffered were at the hands of Iranian-backed Shia militias. American troops were killed, and Iran was responsible. In 1983, through Hezbollah, American Marines were bombed in their barracks in Beirut, and Iran was responsible.
The Iranian regime has American blood on its hands, and it is their religious and ideological worldview to continue to fund terrorists. We should be turning every screw to make sure that they are not getting a penny of our resources flowing into their terrorist-backing coffers.
We should be standing with our ally Israel as they root out Hamas. Joe Biden should not be considering any sort of practical rapprochement with a regime who is funding barbarous murder, rape, kidnapping, and the beheading of babies. It's absolutely despicable.
Here in Florida, I am using every available resource to support Israelis and cut off every source of funding for the Iranians. We are strengthening our sanctions and reinforcing our commitment to do no business with state sponsors of terrorists.
This is something that we should all agree on, unanimously. This is not a party issue. Our country should be drying up Iran’s ability to fund terrorism, not protesting in support of Hamas.
This is personal to me. This is personal to my state. With the second largest Israeli-American population in the country, the people across the communities I serve have friends and family members that have either gone missing or been brutally murdered in recent days. These emotions are raw.
As President, I would not be okay with the liberal institutions across this country siding with Hamas and leading pro-Hamas demonstrations. I would be reversing Biden’s disastrous open-border policies so that terrorists could not attack our vulnerabilities and enter our country armed with weapons, drugs, and intent to harm. And we would be expanding our sanctions so that American money never lines the pockets of the terrorist-backing Iranian regime.
We must focus on what matters and condemn the antisemitism mobilizing this appalling horror. Joe Biden isn’t getting the job done. We need a President who is going to be disciplined, focused, and put the mission first. Joe Biden is not that guy, but I am. When I am President, we will use every available resource to end the facilitation of these despicable acts.
If you’d like to support my campaign, please consider chipping in at the link below. Please, don't feel pressured. This time is difficult time and I understand if you do not want to provide resources to a political campaign during this crisis. Please know that I will always appreciate your support, no matter what form it takes.
I know this is personal, and we won’t sit idly by. We will stand with Israel; not just today, not just tomorrow, but always.
Yours in Freedom,
Ron DeSantis

Help us lead our Great American Comeback by getting involved today!
Ron DeSantis comes from blue-collar roots in the state of Florida. Nothing was handed to him, he worked his way through college and led his team as the Yale Baseball captain.
After earning his undergraduate degree, Ron DeSantis graduated from Harvard Law School, but was so moved by the events of September 11, 2001, that he volunteered to serve in the Navy to fight for our freedom.
When he returned, he started a life of public service by serving Florida as both Congressman and now Governor.
Despite all his years of fighting to ensure the American people enjoy the freedom we're promised in this country, he's watched the Left strip away freedoms at every turn and impose radical agendas on children, families, and consumers nationwide.
In 2009, Ron met the love of his life Casey in Florida, and he's now the proud father of 6, 5, and 3-year-old children. Because of his kids, Ron DeSantis knows that this fight is personal and understands the frustration parents face when teachers' unions and liberal groups shove a political agenda down the throats of children.
On Day One, Ron DeSantis has promised that he will bring a RECKONING for what unelected bureaucrats like Anthony Fauci and DC elites have done to children. Ron DeSantis will ignite our Great American Comeback by immediately getting to work stopping the invasion across our southern border, ensuring our military once again puts the mission first, declaring our economic independence, and restoring our American energy dominance so that our country gets back on track before it's too late.
In Florida, Ron DeSantis' record speaks for itself. He’s taken on the political establishment, politicized bureaucratic agencies, woke corporations, and the legacy media countless times and won every single time. Under his leadership, Florida has cultivated a thriving economy. It has stood as a citadel of freedom, and with him as our next President, America can once again be that shining City on a Hill for the rest of the world to look upon.
That's why he's running for President of the United States. Ron DeSantis knows that the decline of our country is a choice that cannot continue for another four years; the time to lead is now.... the time to act is now.
