Sullivan Reacts to Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s Address to Congress
WASHINGTON, DC – Senator Dan Sullivan (R-AK) released the following statement today after attending Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s joint address to Congress:
“Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered a powerful and moving speech to Congress today,” said Sen. Sullivan. “It was everything a speech from a strong leader should be: intelligent, resolved and most importantly, true. All of us, especially President Obama, should take note, especially when the Prime Minister said that the deal that the Obama administration is making with Iran ‘paves Iran’s path’ to a bomb. ‘The greatest dangers facing our world is the marriage of militant Islam with nuclear weapons,’ said Prime Minister Netanyahu. ‘To defeat ISIS and let Iran get nuclear weapons, would be to win the battle, but lose the war.’
“I agree wholeheartedly. For the security of Israel, for the stability of the Middle East, and for the future of our country, we must do everything in our power to keep Iran from having a nuclear bomb. Know that I will continue to work with the my colleagues on both sides of the aisle in the U.S. Senate to give the Obama administration the backbone on national security issues that it has lacked for the past six years.”
