“The Iran deal was a horrible and tragic mistake, with historical consequences for the United States and Israel. Barack Obama was obsessed with a deal – a legacy deal – and doesn’t believe the Iranian regime when they say ‘death to America’ and ‘death to Israel’, and he wanted a deal no matter what because he wanted something on his resume that made it look like he contributed to some form of world peace.”
“In reality what he’s done is empower the world’s most vicious sponsor of state-terrorism, a historic enemy of Israel and the United States who is now on a path to a nuclear weapon.”
Hegseth praised Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, calling him one of the most effective and consistent critics of the Iran deal.
“The primary person who spoke truth in that moment was Bibi Netanyahu… who stood up and said ‘If this happens, you are now threatening the very existence of Israel because Iran has said what they would do with a nuclear weapon and that capability. And wielding that would change the whole power-dynamic in the Middle East. It would disempower Israel and disempower the United States and empower one of the most fanatical Islamist regimes in the region in Iran.”
