“Thank you, Dr. Wenstrup. So we conclude our time tonight. Do you sense, do you understand, those of you who are listening and watching, do you see that we have legitimate and deeply-held concerns about the direction that this administration is moving? There are so many questions. Can we trust Iran? You have seen and heard example after example of how they have worked against our interests, how they have been a destructive influence in so many parts of the world. We ask the question, as I asked Secretary Kerry last week: Can you give me a single example of them partnering with us or any of our allies in any positive way? The answer was no. Are we being true to our allies? Israel is our only friend and ally in a chaotic part of the world. They recognize and respect human rights, including minority rights, including the rights of women. They have called this an existential threat. There is a reason they call Israel a one-bomb nation. That is all it would take to destroy their entire country. Could we allow ourselves to be put in a position where that might be their reality? Is this in agreement with our own national interest? Remember the map that I showed you, North Korea, throughout Asia, the Middle East, Central and South America, even on our borders of Mexico. Finally, Madam Speaker, I hope the President understands our concerns.…”
