Senator Josh Hawley supports Israel’s war against Iran’s nuclear weapons facilities. However he told CNN’s Manu Raju that he believes the US should not enter the war against Iran, even if it’s just to destroy Fordow. Entering the war is a whole different matter.
Israel said they believe they can destroy Fordow using troops.
“Josh Hawley, who spoke to Trump last night, told me he ‘would not’ be comfortable if the US took offensive action against Iran,” CNN’s Manu Raju posted on X on Wednesday.
“I don’t want us fighting a war. I don’t want another Mideast war…. I’m a little concerned about our sudden military buildup in the region,” Hawley told Raju. “I think Trump’s message to them is if you don’t [give up nukes], you’re on your own with Israel. I think all that’s fine. It’s a very different thing though for us to then say, but we are going to offensively … go strike Iran or insert ourselves into the conflict.”
“Trump’s offering [Iran] an off-ramp. Take the off-ramp,” he continued. “If not, you’re going to be on your own with Israel, but I don’t think there’s a need for the United States to affirmatively insert ourselves.”
In the clip below, you can hear pro-war Thom Tillis say it’s time for regime change and we must do it. That will light up the entire Middle East. Don’t underestimate how much many of the people there hate us.
Meanwhile, the UK, Germany and France are trying to find a diplomatic solution to the war.
Not all Iranians want to overturn their government.

Data Republican points out this fact.
If you're questioning why China wants to keep the U.S. out of Iran, the answer isn't some idealistic pursuit of global peace or that China is anti-globalist.

Hawley is taking a better position than most anyone in DC. He is definitely an outsider, like Trump. Anyone should be able to see who the war zealots are, they are the fake conservatives, the corrupt DC establishment, the neocon Trump opposing stench we have in DC. Supporters of an invasion of Iran are at one with corrupt DC. This… Read more »
Josh Hawley Feb 2022: “Russia’s brutal assault on Ukraine and invasion of its territory must be met with strong American resolve. President Biden must act now to hit Vladimir Putin where it hurts, beginning with Russia’s energy sector. The Biden Administration should sanction Russian energy production to a halt, and help arm the Ukrainians to defend themselves. At the same… Read more »
I don not sure what point you are trying to make. Hawley opposed US intervention in both war.
Hey DA, there will not be a “war” with Iran. Good grief, they can’t defend themselves at all against Israel. What kind of war will they be capable of against the US? If someone doesn’t stop the Iranian islamic regime, there will be destruction and devastation. And besides, “death to America” sounds like a declaration of war to me. Are… Read more »
That is of course a completely ignorant post. Might does not make right. The USA does not attack nations based on weakness. Christianity does not believe that either, at least the decent Christians do not believe that. Then you combine your immoral position with the usual comic book type approach to the matter. You want actions against US interests, which… Read more »
