Former President Donald Trump declared the latest terror attack against Israel an “act of savagery that must and will be crushed and avenged” during a campaign stop in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, on Saturday.
“I stood proudly with our friend and ally, the state of Israel—and I will do it again,” Trump told the crowd as he began to discuss the recent violent terror attacks against Israel by Hamas.
The Palestinian terror attack happened on the Jewish holiday of Shemini Atzeret, the final day of the annual High Holy Day cycle.
“The terror invasion of Israeli territory and the murder of Israeli soldiers and citizens is an act of savagery that must and will be crushed and avenged. It has to be crushed,” Trump declared. “Israel is at war, and the United States has to support Israel. There has been no better president for Israel than me.”
