As we’ve reported, the United States and its longtime ally, Israel, have launched coordinated strikes on the Islamic Republic of Iran after ongoing negotiations failed to convince the mullahs to give up their nuclear dreams.
Of course, the despotic Iranian regime has already responded and is launching missiles at its arch-enemy, the Jewish state of Israel.
As RedState managing editor Jennifer Van Laar reported, the president made remarks as the attacks unfolded. But one thing he said is important to point out: he explicitly called on the Iranian people to rise up.
Remember when former President Barack Obama didn’t have their backs during their Green Movement in 2009? Millions took to the streets to protest oppression, obvious election fraud, and basic human rights, but Obama’s lukewarm “support” did not help them in the slightest.
All we needed was a new president:
It will be yours to take.
Of course, Obama later went on to adopt the noxious 2015 nuclear deal with Iran that gave them billions of dollars and no accountability. Now the chickens have come home to roost.
