AIPAC and our 6 million grassroots members—Democrats and Republicans from all 50 states—are proud to help expand the U.S.-Israel relationship! Funded by Americans. Directed by Americans. Strengthening an alliance that benefits America! 🇺🇸🇮🇱

The IDF says it struck over 70 Hezbollah sites in southern Lebanon in the past day. The targets included rocket launchers and buildings used by the terror group to advance attacks, according to the military. The IDF says it also killed several Hezbollah operatives identified in areas of southern Lebanon where troops are operating.

Iran launched multiple one-way attack drones in an attempt to strike commercial ships transiting the Strait of Hormuz. U.S. forces have downed all of them in recent hours as traffic flow through the strait continues unimpeded. The international trade corridor remains open for transit.

“By 2028, 100 percent of FMF assistance must be spent in the United States on American-made defense goods and services…The money does not leave the American economy. It circulates through American factories, American supply chains, and American workers.”

For months, Iranian-backed Hezbollah has bombarded northern Israel with rockets, missiles, and fiber-optic drones. Israel has the right and the responsibility to defend its people. Learn more 👇

🔴ELIMINATED: 10 Hezbollah field commanders and their successors. Among the eliminated commanders was the commander of the Nasser Unit, Hajj Salameh and his two successors, Mahdi Bazzi and Ashraf Salloum. In addition, the IDF eliminated the commander of the Shaqif Sector, Nasser Shaqir, and his successor, Ahmad Sablini and other senior field commanders.

Thank you @JDVance! Relying on Iranian regime state media for facts is a fool’s errand. 🇺🇸

🔴 Senior US official: Iran deal requires nuclear program dismantled, uranium removed, Hormuz open, terror funding halted before funds released

I am very glad to hear from @POTUS that Iranian media reports about the so-called deal are fake because the deal as described by Iran would be awful. President Trump and our military deserve a lot of credit for making Iran the weakest they’ve been since 1979 through a combination of highly effective military strikes and a crushing blockade. However, we must remember the Iranian regime has killed 42,000 of their own people for simply wanting a better life, and their leadership are radical religious Nazis.  As to any potential deal, it must be compared to the JCPOA, and I am hopeful that it will be vastly different. The idea of a $300 billion reconstruction fund, given who is in charge of Iran, seems to be tone deaf. It would be akin to a Marshall Plan for Germany with the Nazis still in charge. That wouldn’t have been a good idea then, and any reconstruction fund that benefits this terrorist regime wouldn’t be a good idea now. As to the Iranian nuclear program, President Trump’s red line has been no enrichment. I hope that holds — as it must. Allowing Iran to enrich under the JCPOA was one of the major flaws of that terrible deal. As I’ve stated before, any deal with Iran must come to Congress for scrutiny and approval.

Today’s 3 1 Energy Ministerial Dialogue, bringing together #Cyprus, #Greece, #Israel and the #USA, as well as the launch of the Eastern Mediterranean Energy Center in Houston, constitute a development of particular political and geostrategic significance. At a time when energy security has become a critical factor for the stability and resilience of states, the Eastern Mediterranean is assuming ever greater importance. Cooperation among the four countries establishes a stable framework for dialogue and coordination, aimed at harnessing the region’s energy potential, strengthening connectivity and developing common approaches to emerging challenges. The launch of the Eastern Mediterranean Energy Center #EMEC gives this cooperation even greater substance and a more practical dimension. It establishes a permanent mechanism, based in Houston, one of the world’s leading energy hubs, which can serve as a point of reference for the exchange of expertise, the development of joint initiatives, closer cooperation with the academic and business communities and the advancement of implementable solutions. These efforts can deliver shared benefits for the 3 1 countries and for regional partners, within the broader framework of advancing strategic multilateralism. The Eastern Mediterranean Energy Center is linked to the implementation of a provision of the 2019 Eastern Mediterranean Security and Energy Partnership Act. Today, that same strategic direction is gaining renewed momentum through the Eastern Mediterranean Gateway Act, which promotes the Eastern Mediterranean as a strategic bridge connecting #Europe, the #MiddleEast and #India, with explicit reference to the importance of Cyprus, the 3 1 framework and critical regional infrastructure. This continuity carries particular political significance. It demonstrates that the upgrading of relations between 🇨🇾🇺🇸 is part of a coherent strategy that is steadily acquiring greater institutional depth, concrete instruments and practical substance. Our geographic position is important. Its true value, however, is enhanced by our credibility, the partnerships we build and our consistent presence wherever developments are shaped. 🇨🇾🇬🇷🇮🇱🇺🇸

Israel, Greece, and Cyprus are important U.S. allies partnering together on critical energy, security, and tech innovations. 🇺🇸🇮🇱🇬🇷🇨🇾 Capable partners working together to advance America’s interests.

J Street is free to lobby for downgrading the alliance and weakening both the U.S. and Israel. I wouldn’t expect anything different, because that is what the organization does. And therefore that is what the organization is. I’d rather they be honest about their own motivations, but they shouldn’t begrudge the honesty of their critics. commentary.org/seth-mandel/j…

Israel, Greece, Cyprus and the United States have launched, on Friday June 11th, the East Med Energy Center, a new platform for cooperation in energy, technology, innovation and research. The initiative will strengthen cooperation on energy security, cybersecurity, innovation and critical infrastructure while bringing together governments, universities, researchers and industry leaders. A major step forward in strengthening regional cooperation and building a more secure and connected Eastern Mediterranean.

Israeli PM Netanyahu will speak tonight with US president Trump

I hope we have in fact reached a diplomatic solution to end the Iranian conflict that will meet President Trump’s red lines and be fundamentally different from the JCPOA. As in the past, any agreement reached with Iran related to their nuclear program will be presented to Congress for review and approval. I look forward to that process.
