On Tuesday, Iran launched around 200 missiles at Israel following the deaths of Hezbollah leader Hassan Nasrallah in Lebanon last week and Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran in late July, according to Reuters. Trump stated, \u201cThe world is on fire and spiraling out of control. We have no leadership; Joe Biden is a non-existent president, while Kamala Harris is too busy fundraising in San Francisco.\u201d He further criticized both leaders for their confusion regarding current events and noted that during his presidency, Iran was financially constrained and contained. He accused Harris of providing them with American funds, which he claims has led to increased terrorism from Iran throughout the region. The Trump campaign also highlighted a past interview where Harris told Iran simply &#8220;Don&#8217;t&#8221; as her message against provoking conflict after Hamas&#8217;s invasion of Israel on October 7. White House national security advisor Jake Sullivan reported that U.S. Navy destroyers assisted Israel in intercepting incoming missiles from Iran during this time, stating that initial assessments indicated the attack was largely ineffective<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2348243,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/trump-and-those-guys.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[4021,3823,4671,3634],"class_list":["post-2348242","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-harris","tag-iran","tag-israel","tag-trump"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/10\/trump-and-those-guys.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2348242","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2348242"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2348242\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2348243"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2348242"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2348242"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2348242"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
