Congressman Ros-Lehtinen: “[The Iranians are] the ones who started the fire, and now we’re going to call on Iran to be the firefighter. It makes no sense.”
Congressman Hunter: “Just because we’re killing the same group of guys that the Iranians are trying to kill [it] doesn’t make us co-conspirators with the Iranians. Because at some point…things could switch and we may be looking at each other across the end of a gun barrel.”
