Upon learning of the unprovoked attack on Israel by Hamas terrorists, Mike Pence offered the following statement:
"Every American should condemn the unprovoked and massive attack on Israel by terrorists in Hamas. Our prayers are with the families and soldiers of our most cherished ally. Prime Minister Netanyahu says Israel is 'at war.'
"This is what happens when America's president projects weakness on the world stage, kowtows to the mullahs in Iran with a $6 Billion ransom, and leaders in the Republican Party signal American retreat as Leader of the Free World. Weakness arouses Evil.
"It's time to get back to Peace through strength.
"It's time to get back to American leadership.
"It's time to make sure the terrorists in Hamas and Tehran know…
"America Stands With Israel!"
