GEN. JACK KEANE: The important thing is there are going to be some sanctions coming forward. Certainly missiles, drone, you mentioned the steel industry. All of that is worthwhile. But he left out what is really giving Iran the money that they have. They're flush with money. And what's that from? Oil. Oil. Oil. Oil. And that should be our focus. We need secondary sanctions going after the Chinese companies that are buying all of that oil. We've got to step up here and get on with this. The previous administration had Iran in the tank with 200,000, 300,000 barrels of oil a day. Now it's close to 4 million barrels of oil a day. No wonder they have all the money to buy ballistic missiles, rockets and other long-range missiles for their proxies because they're flush with this money. And it's unfortunate we're not going after that. I don't think we have the stomach. Because it's all about China. 

White House National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan released a statement earlier this week announcing that new sanctions will be placed against Iran in the wake of the regime's attacks against Israel last weekend.
