Republican Senator Tom Cotton defends Israel, saying deal with Hamas is bad: 'We shouldn't negotiate with terrorists, or ask Israel or any other country to negotiate with terrorists.'
ARUTZ 7 -- Senior Republican Senator Tom Cotton has come to Israel's defense, saying that the deal with Hamas is bad and that the only reason for it is the conduct of outgoing President Joe Biden.
“We shouldn't negotiate with terrorists. We shouldn't ask Israel or any other country to negotiate with terrorists. You know we didn't negotiate with Japan after Hiroshima and Nagasaki. We said unconditional surrender and release the 40,000 Americans you hold, and that's what they did," Cotton said in an interview with Mark Levin on Fox News.
He added: "We wouldn't be in this position here in January of 2025, if that's the position Joe Biden had taken in October of 2023.
