Iran has launched a barrage of ballistic missiles targeting Israel, leading to significant political reactions in the United States. Former President Donald Trump criticized the Biden administration's response, claiming that such an attack would not have occurred under his leadership. Trump described the situation as the 'world on fire' and warned of the US being on the 'brink of World War III.' He also launched a new campaign ad attacking Vice President Kamala Harris. Senator Lindsey Graham expressed support for Trump's stance, emphasizing the need to protect Israel from Iranian threats. The Biden administration's foreign policy was also criticized by other political figures, who argued that it has emboldened adversaries like Iran. This follows a 2020 incident where Iran fired ballistic missiles at US forces, resulting in traumatic injuries to personnel.
