I think that everybody will face an even deeper cycle of violence if those kinds of rockets get through.

So I personally, and I would urge for government policy to be, to continue to sell missile defense systems, Iron Dome being one of several systems.

But offensive weapons, as long as Israel is

violating the ceasefire, as long as it is violating our laws, as long as it's violating international laws, or now and until such time as it's not violating all of those things, the United States should withhold, and that's why we supported the joint resolutions of disapproval, should withhold offensive weapons from Israel while it is violating American law and international law.

Yeah, I mean, you and I probably just won't agree on this, but that's fine.

I mean, I think that it's important that there be gradation of different opinions on this.

We're sort of aligned behind the notion that there has to be a change in the U.S.-Israel relationship and that the blank check has to end and there has to be pressure placed and we need to change Israeli policy and the U.S.

can't be complicit in what's going on anymore.

So we agree on a lot of it.

What we don't agree on, and I just will maintain this

To the end, you know, I believe that it is a very high purpose to ensure that randomly fired

Houthi, Hezbollah, Hamas, militia rockets coming out of Syria or Iraq, and even Iranian missiles, to prevent them from hitting civilians and killing more people is something of value.

And if some of these rockets got through, you say it couldn't get worse,

I think it could get worse, and I hate to say that, but the level of destruction is here, but I tell you, they could go here.

And I think it has...

at least somewhat, held back the cycle of violence from going to the absolute seventh circle of hell.

Well, I also think one thing to bear in mind when it comes, if something gets lost in the Iron Dome debate is that Israel developed Iron Dome and then the United States entered into a contract with Israel.

And they said, you know, if you produce the systems, then we'll produce the interceptors here on American soil.

And Israel agreed to that.

So it's a slightly different situation.
