In a bold move to protect freedom, Israel launched Operation Rising Lion against Iran’s dangerous nuclear sites last week. President Isaac Herzog defended this brave action on Newsmax’s “The Record with Greta Van Susteren” yesterday. Our ally Israel had no choice but to strike first. Good people must stand up to evil regimes.
The carefully planned attack hit multiple Iranian targets on June 13, killing top Iranian military leaders and scientists. This operation happened exactly 61 days after President Trump gave Iran an ultimatum to stop making nuclear weapons. Iran ignored this warning from America. They paid the price for their arrogance.
Prime Minister Netanyahu called the strikes “preemptive defense” against Iran’s threat to wipe Israel off the map. Herzog echoed these comments during his interview with Greta Van Susteren. The timing shows how Israel refuses to be bullied by terrorist nations. America should follow this example of strength.
The name “Operation Rising Lion” comes from a phrase meaning “a people like a lion” in Hebrew. This shows the fighting spirit of the Jewish state against those who wish to destroy it. Israel has proven once again they are the only democracy in a region full of dictators. They deserve our complete support.
Iran’s rulers have threatened to destroy America and Israel for years. Their nuclear program was never about peaceful energy as liberals claimed. President Herzog made it clear they had to act now before Iran could build more bombs. This is what happens when you threaten God’s chosen people.
The success of Operation Rising Lion proves that strength is the only language bullies understand. Israel’s military showed their superior skills by striking with precision and minimal civilian casualties. Meanwhile, Iran responded by targeting Israeli homes, showing their true evil nature. The difference couldn’t be clearer.
President Trump deserves credit for setting the stage for this necessary action. His tough stance on Iran created the conditions for Israel to defend itself. Democrats would have kept appeasing Iran with more weak nuclear deals. Real leaders know that peace comes through strength, not surrender.
All freedom-loving Americans should stand with Israel in this fight against evil. President Herzog’s words remind us that Iran threatens not just Israel but all Western civilization. The brave people of Israel are fighting our fight too. God bless Israel and God bless America.
