Trump Responds to Iran Attack, Says ‘Would Not Have Happened’ If He Were in Office

Israel was targeted by over 300 aerial threats on Saturday, including drones and missiles.

Former President Donald Trump attributed Iran’s recent decision to attack Israel to weakness shown by the Biden administration, and vowed to revive American strength abroad once he is reelected to the White House.

“I wanted to say God bless the people of Israel. They’re under attack right now. That’s because we show great weakness,” President Trump told a rally in Pennsylvania on Saturday. “The weakness that we’ve shown is unbelievable, and it would not have happened if we were in office. You know that, they know that, everybody knows that. But America prays for Israel, and we send our absolute support to everyone in harm’s way. This is an attack that would not have happened.”

“But we will return the world to peace through strength and it will happen very quickly. We will revive American strength abroad, and we will restore American strength at home. We were respected four years ago all over the world. Today, we are considered a joke. It’s not going to be for long, believe me. It’s not going to be for long.”

Iran attacked Israel on Saturday with dozens of drones and missiles aimed at the Jewish nation. This was the first time that the Islamic regime has launched a direct military assault against Israel.

In addition to President Trump, other Republicans have also voiced concerns about the ongoing conflict in the Middle East.

“As Israel faces this vicious attack from Iran, America must show our full resolve to stand with our critical ally,” House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) said in an April 13 X post. “The world must be assured: Israel is not alone.”

“I will continue to engage with the White House to insist upon a proper response. The Biden Administration’s undermining of Israel and appeasement of Iran have contributed to these terrible developments.”

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) said that Iran’s attack on Israel is proof that President Biden’s approach toward the Islamic regime and the Middle East is “backwards.”

“Now as we risk entering WWIII, the U.S. must stand by Israel’s commitment to democracy. The president must stand firm, and stop coddling Iran immediately.”
