"For decades, the Iranian regime has funded terrorism, threatened our allies, and chanted 'Death to America' while destabilizing the Middle East," said Congressman Van Drew. "What we are witnessing now is a decisive response to years of aggression. The leadership of the world's largest state sponsor of terror has been dealt a powerful blow. We killed one of the most evil men in the world, along with 40 of his cohorts. When America leads with strength, our enemies think twice, and the world is safer for it. Our men and women in uniform performed with extraordinary courage to get the job done. Every American should be grateful for their service tonight. God bless our troops. God bless our allies. And God bless the United States of America."
