He criticized President Joe Biden for loosening sanctions on Iran and unfreezing $6 billion in Iranian \u2064oil revenues, warning\u2063 that such actions provide financial support for\u2062 terrorism.<\/p>\n<p>In an \u200cexclusive interview with The Daily Wire, DeSantis\u2064 expressed his unwavering\u200c support for Israel&#8217;s right to defend itself and called for unity in standing with\u2064 the country. \u200cHe \u200ccondemned the constraints placed on Israel when \u200dit responds to acts of\u200d terrorism and\u200d emphasized the need to\u2063 address the problem of Hamas.<\/p>\n<h3>Standing Strong with\u2064 Israel<\/h3>\n<p>DeSantis highlighted the significance of the recent attacks, comparing\u200d them to multiple\u2062 9\/11s when adjusted for population size. He emphasized that the region\u200d and Israel will never be the same as a result\u2062 of these events.<\/p>\n<p>As governor of Florida, DeSantis assured the Jewish community of the state&#8217;s commitment to\u2064 their safety. He also praised Florida&#8217;s\u2064 history of collaboration \u2064with\u2063 Israel and expressed\u200b readiness to\u200c provide assistance to\u200b Israel,\u2064 citing the IDF&#8217;s support during Florida&#8217;s search \u2063and rescue operation following the\u2062 Surfside\u2063 Tower collapse in June 2021.<\/p>\n<h3>Turning the \u200dScrews on \u200cIran<\/h3>\n<p>DeSantis called for a consistent approach in \u2064dealing with Iran, stating that\u200b the U.S. should always be &#8220;turning the screws&#8221; on\u200c the \u2062country.\u2064 He emphasized the need to make it difficult for Iran to operate and\u2064 advance\u2064 terrorism in the region, using every\u2063 available mechanism to keep them in check.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis \u2063had\u2062 previously warned about\u2062 the $6 billion payment to Iran, and he reiterated the dangers of providing\u2064 a financial lifeline\u200b to a terrorist regime. He stressed \u2064the importance of maintaining an ironclad relationship \u2062with Israel, promising to prioritize this alliance if elected \u200bpresident.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Biden is shamefully caving \u2062to Iran\u2019s blackmail and extortion. \u200bRewarding Iran for taking Americans hostage incentivizes more hostage-taking.<\/p>\n<p>The \u2063$6 \u2063billion ransom payment will help Iran build nuclear\u2064 weapons,\u2063 support terrorism, oppress the Iranian\u2063 people, and\u200c assist \u200bRussia.\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Ron DeSantis\u2062 (@RonDeSantis) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/RonDeSantis\/status\/1689783405477613569?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August \u206310, 2023<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p> <\/p>\n<h2> How did DeSantis express his support for Israel&#8217;s right to protect its\u2064 citizens and condemn the terrorist attacks?<\/h2>\n<p><span>  He affirmed that Israel has the right to protect its citizens and\u200c condemned the terrorist attacks as an attack on the values of democracy and freedom.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis also \u200chighlighted the danger posed by Iran&#8217;s nuclear program, stating that \u2064a nuclear-armed Iran\u2064 would be a\u2063 grave threat\u2063 to global security. He\u200c called for a reinstatement of the Iran nuclear deal \u200dwith tougher restrictions\u2063 and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/what-wga-received-in-its-new-agreement-with-hollywood\/\" title=\"WGA secures new Hollywood agreement.\">stronger enforcement mechanisms<\/a> to \u200dprevent Iran from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/the-march-to-appeasement\/\" title=\"The March to Appeasement\">acquiring nuclear weapons<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, DeSantis criticized the Biden administration&#8217;s approach \u200cto Iran,\u2062 asserting that it lacks the necessary resolve to confront the regime. He\u2064 argued that \u200cthe United States must leverage its \u2063economic and diplomatic influence \u200bto pressure Iran \u2063into abandoning its support for\u2064 terrorism and cease \u2063its destabilizing actions in the region.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of a concrete\u200b plan of action, DeSantis proposed a range of measures. These <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/exclusive-desantis-israel-needs-to-use-overwhelming-force-u-s-needs-to-turn-the-screws-on-iran\/\" title=\"DeSantis: Israel must employ 'strong force'; U.S. should pressure Iran.\">include imposing\u2063 stricter sanctions<\/a> \u2062on Iran, targeting its sources of funding for \u200cterrorism, and supporting Israel in its efforts to\u200d counter Iranian aggression. He stressed the importance of building a coalition of like-minded nations\u200c to collectively address the\u200d Iranian\u2062 threat.<\/p>\n<p>DeSantis\u200d emphasized the need for a comprehensive strategy that addresses not only\u2063 Iran&#8217;s nuclear ambitions but also its support \u2064for terrorism, its ballistic missile \u200cprogram, and \u2063its destabilizing activities in the region. He called for a \u200cstrong and united stance against the \u200cIranian regime, warning that appeasement would\u2062 only embolden\u2064 Iran and put global security at risk.<\/p>\n<p>As a potential Republican candidate for president, DeSantis&#8217;s strong stance against Iran reflects the broader sentiment \u2063within \u200cthe Republican \u2064Party. The party has traditionally\u2064 taken \u200ba more hawkish approach to Iran,\u200d advocating for a tougher stance on the regime and \u200ca more proactive approach to countering \u2062its \u2064influence.<\/p>\n<p>In conclusion, Ron DeSantis&#8217;s \u2063calls for strong action against Iran following the \u2063recent terrorist attacks in Israel \u2064underscore the urgent need to confront the Iranian regime. He stresses the importance of international unity \u2063and cooperation in addressing\u2062 the Iranian threat and highlights the \u2063dangers posed by Iran&#8217;s nuclear program. \u2062As the Republican Party continues \u2064to\u2062 articulate its <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/senate-overwhelmingly-votes-to-keep-u-s-embassy-in-jerusalem\/\" title=\"Senate Overwhelmingly Votes to Keep U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem\">foreign policy positions<\/a>, DeSantis&#8217;s stance on Iran is likely to resonate with \u2063conservative\u2062 voters who\u2063 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-pentagon-plows-forward-with-woke-agenda-by-working-to-give-benefits-to-former-troops-who-broke-rules\/\" title=\"Biden's Pentagon pushes ahead with inclusive agenda, aiming to provide benefits to rule-breaking veterans.\">prioritize national \u200bsecurity<\/a> and the defense of democratic values.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Republican candidate Ron DeSantis urges continuous pressure on Iran, following Palestinian terrorists&#8217; deadly assaults in Israel.
