Iran, Hamas leaders proclaim their evil plans. Take them at their words

Iran's foreign minister Hossein Amir-Adollahian has threatened America's leaders with violence over the Hamas terror attacks. Hamas' Ghazi Hamad has promised murder sprees to come.

Victor Davis Hanson is a senior fellow at the Hoover Institution and the author most recently of "The Dying Citizen." 

I don’t think Amir-Abdollahian would come into our country to issue such a direct threat to American leaders had the Biden administration not assigned Robert Malley to reboot the atrocious but then-inert Iran Deal, had it not lifted oil export sanctions--resulting in a multimillion dollar windfall to Tehran, had it not tried to ransom American hostages from Iran at $1.2 billion a captive, had it not restored hundreds of millions of dollars in support to the West Bank and Gaza, had it not allowed U.S. aid and remittance dollars to Lebanon to seep into Hezbollah coffers, had it not dropped past American declarations that the Houthis were a terrorist organization, and had it not ignored rather than retaliated for dozens of attacks on U.S. forces in Syria and Iraq by Iranian surrogates.
