Former Navy SEAL and Senate candidate, Tim Sheehy, is calling on America to provide unconditional support to Israel as it faces a grave conflict in the Middle East.

Sheehy criticizes the Biden administration for not recognizing the true threat posed by Iran, stating that Iran is the mortal enemy of American freedom.

Sheehy emphasizes that Israel doesn't need assistance in fighting Hamas, but rather, it requires unwavering support in its struggle to maintain independence against hostile Muslim actors.

The GOP candidate points out that Biden's decision to unfreeze $6 billion in assets to Iran just before Hamas attacked Israel was a mistake that has been rectified.

Sheehy highlights the urgency of distancing America from Iran and discontinuing economic appeasement, asserting that these conflicts require separate aid packages.

While Biden has requested emergency supplemental funding to aid both Israel and Ukraine, Sheehy argues that the situations differ significantly, with Israel fighting for survival.

Sheehy condemns the recent anti-Israel sentiments displayed on college campuses, attributing them to a generation that has been indoctrinated with negative views of Western civilization and Israel.

The veteran suggests that these students should visit the Middle East and see the reality before engaging in protests.

When comparing the handling of Middle East relations, Sheehy credits former President Donald Trump for standing up to Iranian aggression and supporting Israel.

Sheehy concludes by emphasizing the need to destroy extremist ideologies and not negotiate or appease them.
