Congressmen Say It's Time to Come Out Clearly and Name Iran
While the Obama Administration has been somewhat reticent about naming Iran, the same is not true for Congress.
Israel received support in both houses of Congress for its campaign against
Iranian terror.
Representative Mike Rogers (R-Michigan), who heads the House Intelligence Committee and sees classified intelligence information, concurs that Hizbullah was involved in the Bulgarian terror attack "and I believe it was under the direction of their masters in Iran."
Rogers claims that the Obama administration is wrong in not naming names. “I think the president needs to call Iran on the carpet very publicly and tell them what we know…This is his time to stand up and do something bold.”
President Obama has pledged to help Israel "identify and bring to justice the perpetrators." It would appear that identification is not the problem.
House Homeland Security Chairman Peter King (R-N.Y.), seconded Rogers. “Generally, I think this administration has not been emphatic enough in defining the enemy for who it is,” he said. “If you want to defeat the enemy, you have to identify the enemy.”
Although Republican House members could be expected to be critical of the administration in an election year, the same themes were sounded in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing chaired by Democratic Senator Bob Casey of Pennsylvania. Casey called out the European Union for pussyfooting on the issue of
Hizbullah by claiming that the organization had a political wing.
