At AIPAC, Trump promises to do three things about Iran.
“First, we will stand against Iran’s attempt to dominate the region.
“Iran is a problem in Iraq, a problem in Syria, a problem in Yemen, and will be a very major problem in Saudi Arabia. Hezbollah in Lebanon has received sophisticated anti-ship rockets like few other people or states. In Gaza, Iran supports Hamas and Islamic Jihad. In the West Bank they’re openly offering Palestinians $7,000 per terror attack and $30,000 for every Palestinian terrorist’s home that is destroyed.”
“We will totally dismantle Iran’s global terror network, which is big and powerful, but not powerful like us. Iran has seeded terror all over the world…in 25 different countries on five continents. Iran is the biggest sponsor of terrorism around the world, and we will work to dismantle that reach. Believe me. Believe me.”
Finally, “at the very least, we must enforce the terms of the previous deal to hold Iran accountable, and will enforce it like you’ve never seen a contract enforced, folks. Believe me.”
Help us report truthfully on social media
As a multimedia journalist, my job is to take the quality, fact-based journalism produced by The Times of Israel newsroom and make it accessible across every platform — from Instagram posts to podcasts to short-form videos.
This is how many, especially young people, consume news these days. But misinformation is rampant on social media. Our team at ToI produces accurate, responsible short-form reporting on Israel and the Jewish world.
If you believe in the importance of factual social media journalism, please consider joining our reader support group, The Times of Israel Community. Your financial support is essential to sustain responsible multimedia reporting.
