U.S. Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) delivered a powerful speech from the floor of the Senate, reminding America of the importance of fighting Iran.<\/p>\n

Sheehy, a 40-year-old former Navy SEAL and decorated combat veteran who deployed multiple times, began his remarks by noting that President Trump traveled to Dover Air Force Base this week to attend a dignified transfer of U.S. service members killed in the war in Iran.<\/p>\n

\u201cI participated in many of those ceremonies myself to include carrying friends of mine off the plane. One of those is on this bracelet. He was cut in half by an Iranian EFP,\u201d the GOP senator said, choking up as he removed the bracelet commemorating Army Captain Benjamin Tiffner, who was killed in action in Baghdad in 2007, and placed it on the lectern.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis regime we are fighting does not care about our partisan politics. They don\u2019t care who you voted for, who you pray to, or where you live. They want to kill all of us. And they don\u2019t just say it, they actually do it, and they\u2019ve been doing it for forty-seven years,\u201d Sheehy said.<\/p>\n

Watch every second of this.<\/p>\n

\u201cYesterday we saw the president of the United States and many others at Dover Air Force Base presiding over a ceremony that is very sacred to those of us who served, and that\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/0U8V2rKN7V<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a war of choice. The Democrats are correct. It\u2019s a war of choice that was begun by a radical lunatic band of terrorists that took over a beautiful nation 47 years ago, took it over with brutality, force, and savagery. And the second they took it over, they didn\u2019t free their people, they didn\u2019t unleash the largest oil reserves in the world to build schools and bridges,\u201d he continued. \u201cThey took it over to murder their own people and to spread their disgusting ideology across the world, and that is exactly what they have been doing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Explaining that the regime\u2019s actions speak for themselves, Sheehy detailed some of the atrocities.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey have attacked families, women, children, innocent people,\u201d he said. \u201cThey don\u2019t just attack them and kill them, they rape them. They skin them alive on camera. They celebrate it. They honor those people who do disgusting things that we would put in jail for the rest of their lives in this country, and they do it for fun, and they pay them money to do it, and they\u2019re heroes to that nation.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sheehy stressed that Iran has done these things to friends of his, and \u201cto families who\u2019ve been in this chamber.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd the fact that we sit here and listen to elected officials of this country defend these lunatics who want us all dead. They want all of you dead. They want all of us dead,\u201d he said. \u201cThey don\u2019t want us to disappear with a snap of a finger. They want us to be raped, burned alive, and cut into pieces. Watch the video from October 7. That\u2019s what they want to happen from Maine to San Diego, from Seattle to Miami. They want this country turned into a burning husk of its former self, and you don\u2019t have to theorize that.\u201d<\/p>\n

After calling attention to some of the attacks Iran is responsible for over the years, Sheehy noted that Trump was the first president to stand up to mullahs.<\/p>\n

\u201cLove Donald Trump or hate him, love his policies, hate ICE, love ICE, whatever. There\u2019s never been a single president who has stood up to Iran and hit back. For 47 years, our troops and our families have been absorbing attack after attack after attack all over the world,\u201d he said. \u201cAnd their radical ideology does not stop at the Persian Gulf. It doesn\u2019t stop at Tel Aviv. They want to do this everywhere. It\u2019s a global radical ideology, and we\u2019ve been fighting it for half a century.\u201d<\/p>\n

Insisting that America will \u201cfinish\u201d the war with Iran, Sheehy reminded his colleagues that when they are criticizing the war effort, the troops see that as someone \u201cstabbing you in the back.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cLast time I checked, we\u2019ve wiped these bastards out. An occasional missile strike and boats in the straits, that\u2019s not military strength. Those are the flailings of a failing empire. Those are the flailings of a nation in collapse because they deserve it,\u201d he concluded. \u201cSo I encourage our colleagues on both sides of the aisle, whatever\u2019s politically convenient, whatever plays well on Twitter or Facebook, think about the people who are deployed right now, standing on that wall with a loaded weapon, who have volunteered to defend our country and our way of life.<\/p>\n

\u201cBecause they are there defending us in a just war, because we did not start a war with the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. They started it with us 47 years ago, and their attacks have gone unanswered for half a century. It\u2019s time to fix this problem and make sure another generation of Americans does not have to fight this murderous, savage adversary.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well said. One of the best reasons stated to end the failed Iranian empire. https:\/\/t.co\/dmapBIhGQv<\/a><\/p>\n

Everything Sen. Tim Sheehy says here is exactly what Americans need to understand. For some of us, this isn\u2019t politics. It isn\u2019t a talking point. It\u2019s our reality.<\/p>\n
