US Senators Call for Military Action in Israel-Iran Conflict

Amid escalating tensions between Israel and Iran, US political figures have been vocal about America's role in the conflict. Israeli opposition leader Yair Lapid expressed support for Israel's actions against Iran, urging US participation and trusting President Trump to make the right decisions, while emphasizing that Iran has long been a hostile actor aiming for nuclear capabilities. Senator Ted Cruz inadvertently revealed that the US has been assisting Israel in attacks on Iran, though the White House denied direct US offensive actions, maintaining a defensive military posture in the Middle East. Cruz also advocated for regime change in Iran, framing the Iranian leadership as hateful religious fanatics and calling for a secular government. Senator Lindsey Graham has pushed for a stronger US military involvement, including the possibility of a ground invasion to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons and to support Israel, urging President Trump to help Israel 'finish the job' if diplomatic efforts fail. These developments highlight growing calls within US leadership for active intervention in the Iran-Israel conflict, reflecting concerns over nuclear proliferation and regional security.
