Cruz: ‘Deeply disturbed’ by reports ‘Obama-Biden officials exerted enormous pressure’ on Israel
“Reminder: There is no peace agreement,” wrote Gerald Steinberg, of NGO Monitor. “The goal of the Tehran regime and its proxy terror armies (in this case, Hezbollah) remains the destruction of Israel.”

Although Israel has achieved “enormous military successes” over the past year against Hezbollah, the Biden administration “has spent the last four years pathologically obsessed with undermining Israel and boosting Iran,” stated Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) after U.S. President Joe Biden announced a ceasefire deal in Lebanon.
“They are now using the transition period to the Trump administration and a Republican Congress to try to lock in those efforts—and to constrain the incoming administration—by establishing what they believe to be irreversible diplomatic, legal and military policies,” Cruz added. “However, these and similar international policies are not irreversible.”
The senator added that he is “deeply disturbed” by reports that “Obama-Biden officials exerted enormous pressure on our Israeli allies to accept this ceasefire” and by how the officials “are characterizing Israel’s obligations.”
“This pressure and these statements are further efforts to undermine Israel and constrain the incoming Trump administration,” Cruz stated. “Obama-Biden officials pressured our Israeli allies into accepting the ceasefire by withholding weapons they needed to defend themselves and counter Hezbollah, and by threatening to facilitate a further, broader, binding international arms embargo through the United Nations.”
Those U.S. officials aim to “use Israel’s acceptance of this ceasefire to ensure that Hezbollah and other Iranian terrorist groups remain intact across Lebanon, and to limit Israel’s future freedom of action and self-defense,” Cruz stated.
