NEW: Vice President JD Vance on Israel’s opposition to parts of the U.S.-Iran MOU- "What is your exact proposal? You’re a country of 9 million people. You can’t just kill your way out of solving every single national security problem that you have." -NYT Opinion
Vice President JD Vance on reactions out of Israel to the Iran MOU-
“Donald J. Trump is the only head of state in the entire world who is sympathetic to the nation of Israel at this moment in time. And he happens to be the head of state of the world's superpower. If I was in the cabinet of the Israeli government, I might not be attacking the only powerful ally that I have anywhere left in the entire world.”
“Over the last three months, two thirds of the defensive weapons that have protected your homeland, have been built by American hands and paid for by American tax dollars. The problem for Israel is not Donald J. Trump and anybody in Israel who thinks their biggest problem is the President of the United States needs to wake up and smell the reality of the situation that country is in.”
