WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Senator Ted Cruz, a member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, has made a statement regarding the Israeli ground offensive. Speaking on behalf of the Israeli government, Senator Cruz emphasized their right and obligation to protect their citizens.

In his statement, Senator Cruz highlighted the long-standing efforts of Israel to counter Hamas's terrorism. He also criticized the international community, including the United States, for advocating engagement and appeasement, which he believes only served to strengthen and embolden Hamas. According to Senator Cruz, this ultimately forced Israel to resort to military force.

"Hamas's atrocities should put an end to any debates over the viability of such tactics and strategies," Senator Cruz stated. He argued that the success of Israel's operation is crucial for the national security of the United States. The senator also pointed out a recent terrorist attack by Hamas, in which over two dozen Americans were killed and an unknown number were taken hostage. He described it as one of the most significant terrorist attacks on American civilians in history.

Senator Cruz emphasized that a terrorist attack on Americans anywhere in the world poses a threat to Americans everywhere unless deterrence is restored by holding those responsible accountable. He concluded his statement by asserting that the United States must provide full support to Israel in their mission to eradicate Hamas completely.

"There is now only one acceptable policy for the United States: We must ensure that our Israeli allies have all the weapons and all the time they need to utterly eradicate Hamas, for as long as it takes," Senator Cruz said.

As the situation in the Middle East continues to evolve, it is clear that Senator Cruz stands firmly behind Israel and believes in the need to prioritize their security. The senator's statement underscores the importance of supporting allies in the fight against terrorism and ensuring the safety of American citizens worldwide.
