U.S. Senator Ted Cruz has issued a statement on the anniversary of the October 7th attacks on Israel, marking one year since what he describes as "the worst one-day massacre of Jews since the Holocaust." The Texas senator emphasized his support for Israel's right to defend itself against Hamas.
Senator Cruz stated, “One year ago, on October 7, the people of Israel faced the greatest act of terror in their nation's history. Hamas murdered more Jews in a single 24-hour period than at any time since the Holocaust. In the face of evil, Israel arose and defended himself. I am awed by Israel's spirit, and I fully support Israel's right to defend itself and to utterly eradicate Hamas."
Cruz further stressed that America's policy should be "absolutely unequivocal" in providing military and diplomatic support to Israel. He declared, "This is a battle between good and evil and good must triumph. Stand strong, never again. Is now.”
Additionally, Senator Cruz released a video urging the United States to maintain unwavering support for Israel as it combats terrorist groups threatening its existence.
