Lawmakers Ask Whether the US Will Go to War With Iran | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

The question lawmakers are pondering as tensions remain high amid Iran's expected retaliation against Israel for its recent killings of senior terrorist leaders is, "is the US about to go to war with Iran and its proxies?" As Israel braces for retaliation from Iran, diplomats are trying to avoid escalating into a full blown war. The US has already deployed additional warplanes and ships to the Eastern Mediterranean to bolster defenses around Israel. The big question is whether Iran will strike back. Robert Greenway from the Heritage Foundation says it's just a matter of time until Iran attacks because they have to save face. Lawmakers are keeping their eye on developments, especially Iran's threats to strike Israel's civilian population. And if Israel is attacked, some lawmakers say the US should respond forcefully.
