Protests in the Middle East are 'getting out of hand,' Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, said Wednesday on Newsmax.
Protests in the Middle East are "getting out of hand," Sen. Joni Ernst, R-Iowa, said Wednesday on Newsmax.
Iran-backed Hezbollah, which fought a war with Israel in 2006, made the call for the day of protest in Beirut in a statement late on Tuesday, after Palestinian officials said hundreds of people were killed in the strike on the hospital. "This is getting very out of hand across the Middle East with the protests and we see protests here in the United States, too. And while they haven't been as violent as what they're saying overseas, it is very concerning with the potential and the warnings that we've had coming from the FBI because of our loose border situation. So I'm very hopeful that this type of violence doesn't spill out of the Middle East and start hitting our own homeland.
Ernst said Congress needs to "make sure that we are directing the Department of Defense with intelligence sharing with the Israelis and our partners across the Middle East, doing intelligence gathering and as well reconstituting the needs of the Israelis whether that is Iron Dome interceptors or other types of military munitions and platforms.
