“The Hamas terrorist invasion of Israeli territory and​ the murder of Israeli‌ soldiers‍ today and the brutal murder of citizens is an act ⁣of savagery that must and⁢ will be crushed,” Trump told Iowa caucus-goers in Waterloo⁢ Saturday afternoon.

Trump was speaking at a⁢ Commit to Caucus event in Black Hawk County, a major Democrat stronghold in Iowa, when he made the remarks.

“It has to be dealt with very powerfully,” Trump said. “This is a time where the‍ United States needs‌ leadership. We don’t have ​leadership, but Israel is at⁣ war. ‍And the ​United States obviously is going to stick ⁢with Israel, and strongly.”

Hamas militants had launched thousands of rockets into Israeli towns near the Gaza Strip in a surprise assault Saturday morning. They also sent‌ in soldiers who slaughtered dozens. Israeli Prime Minister⁢ Benjamin Netanyahu said the country was “at war.”

Trump took aim at the Biden administration for unfreezing $6 billion in Iranian ⁢assets before Hamas attacked Israel.

“I would not be at all surprised if part of that tremendous wealth that they just accumulated⁢ went into, all of a sudden, watching this level of aggression,”⁢ Trump said. “They didn’t have that level of‌ aggression with me.”

This ‍move ​came as part of a prisoner swap deal which permitted the transfer​ of money ‌held in a South⁣ Korean bank to accounts in Qatar. The Biden administration ⁢has claimed ⁢that the money will only be⁤ allowed to be used for humanitarian purposes, but national security expert ‍Clare Lopez, founder of Lopez Liberty LLC, explained ‌ why that⁢ may not be true.

“Money’s fungible and were⁤ that money to be used for let’s say humanitarian purposes,”​ Lopez told One⁢ America News. “That frees up ⁣another $6 billion some‍ other place that will unmistakably, unarguably go to nuclear weapons production. It will go⁣ to‌ terror support Islamic jihad groups in the Middle East and, and further abroad.”

Trump emphasized what he believed ‍to be a key point.

“This would have never happened with me there,” Trump said.

Trump is leading his primary competitors by more than 30 percent in Iowa, according to RealClearPolitics polling Average.

How does former President Trump’s popularity in Iowa reflect ‍the ongoing support for his policies and leadership

In a recent statement, former President Donald Trump expressed his strong ⁤support for Israel following the largest attack by‌ Hamas in ‌decades. This attack targeted⁣ the southern parts of Israel and resulted in the murder of Israeli soldiers⁢ and citizens.

Speaking ⁣at‌ a Commit ⁤to Caucus event in Black Hawk County, a major Democrat stronghold in Iowa, Trump condemned the Hamas ​invasion and described it as an act of savagery⁤ that ⁢must ⁤be crushed. He emphasized the need for strong leadership in the United States during⁢ this time and affirmed that the country will stand with Israel.

Hamas‍ militants launched thousands of rockets‍ into Israeli⁣ towns‌ near the‍ Gaza Strip, catching the country off guard. They also sent soldiers to slaughter dozens of people. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu declared ⁤that the nation was now at war.

Trump did not shy away‍ from criticizing the Biden ⁤administration for unfreezing $6 billion‌ in Iranian assets before the attack on Israel. He speculated that this sudden aggression from Hamas⁣ may have been​ fueled by the newfound wealth, which could potentially be​ used⁢ for nefarious​ purposes. While the Biden​ administration insists that the money⁣ will only be‌ used for humanitarian purposes,⁣ national security expert ‌Clare ⁢Lopez‍ argues that the funds are fungible and could‍ indirectly support nuclear weapons production and terror support for Islamic jihad groups.

Trump made it clear that he believed this situation would not have occurred ⁤if he were still in⁣ power. His strong⁣ stance on⁣ Israel⁣ and his popularity among Republicans in Iowa, where he leads his‍ primary competitors by over⁤ 30 percent⁣ according to ​RealClearPolitics polling Average, reflect the ongoing ​support for ​his policies and⁤ leadership.

It is crucial to stay informed about ‌current events, especially those with global implications like the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Subscribing to news ⁣updates‌ can help ensure ‍that ​important information is delivered directly to your inbox.
