Senator Tom Cotton told Sean Hannity this week that Iran already possesses “thousands” of ballistic missiles that put American bases across the Middle East and beyond squarely within Tehran’s strike envelope. That blunt warning should wake every patriot up: our enemies are not bluffing and neither should our leaders.
Washington’s last-minute negotiations in Geneva have proved what conservatives warned for years — Tehran won’t separate its uranium enrichment program from its missile buildup and it refuses to give up the tools of aggression. The regime continues enriching uranium and racing to improve missile range and accuracy, all while demanding concessions from the free world.
Israeli and Western intelligence assessments make the danger concrete, projecting Iran’s arsenal into the thousands and predicting rapid production increases that could overwhelm regional defenses if left unchecked. Those estimates are not alarmism; they are sober military math that should guide U.S. policy, not the wishful thinking of appeasers.
We’ve already seen what a determined Tehran looks like on the battlefield — massive missile barrages, threats to U.S. facilities, and a willingness to put civilians and American troops at risk. The recent strikes and retaliations should convince even the most complacent lawmakers that deterrence, not diplomacy devoid of enforcement, keeps Americans safe.
Cotton and other hawks are right to insist any agreement must include the dismantling of long-range missiles, immediate unfettered inspections, and verifiable destruction of nuclear pathways — anything less is a delay, not a deal. The time for half-measures and moral equivalence is over; we must demand concrete, verifiable disarmament from a regime that exports terror.
Hardworking Americans expect their leaders to protect them, not negotiate away our security for headlines. Congress should fund our defenses, back our troops, and make clear to Tehran that any attack on Americans will be met with overwhelming response. Patriots don’t flinch in the face of threats; we prepare, we deter, and we stand ready to defend our country and our allies with iron resolve.
