"Yeah, just keep killing, killing them until they're until they're gone. I mean, absolutely." [View all]

Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) expressed full-throated support for Israel's plan to kill anyone who is appointed by the Iranian regime to lead the nation.

A joint U.S.-Israeli military operation decapitated Iran's leadership structure over the weekend, and Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz warned that "any leader appointed by the Iranian terror regime" would become "an unequivocal target for elimination," and the Pennsylvania Democrat told "CNN News Central" that he wholeheartedly agreed.

"Yeah, just keep killing, killing them until they're until they're gone," Fetterman said. "I mean, absolutely. I saw that, I've read that, that they're going to target who they ever elect to be their next leader and kill them – absolutely, I fully support it. So that's what's entirely appropriate now, they have to decide, are we going to continue for, choose now peace, and, or now we're going to try to destroy Israel? They really don't have those capabilities at this point. It's just empty rhetoric because we all know that Iran isn't able to really project the kinds of damage."
