He has called it a necessary step to stop Iran’s nuclear intentions and to counter the decades-long attack against America. At the same time, Senate Majority Leader John Thune said that Iran’s increase in missiles and support of armed groups has created a threat that cannot be considered.

Senate Majority Whip John Barrasso described the operation as restoring containment. The White House released a complete list of lawmakers and statements on Sunday. Barrasso said that he praises President Trump’s important step to end the evil terrorist rule in Iran. It is peace through strength.

Let us tell you that since the Islamic Revolution of 1979, Iran has remained the center of America’s national security policy, which includes tensions like sanctions, proxy conflicts and disputes over uranium enrichment. Preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons has been a goal of both parties in the US for decades, even though the two governments have differed on the balance between diplomacy, sanctions and the use of force.
