U.S. Secretary of Defense Mattis: Israel Doesn't "Have to Wait until Their Citizens Are Dying" to Address the Iranian Threat

(U.S. Department of Defense) Secretary of Defense James Mattis said Sunday: "Everywhere we find trouble in the Middle East, you find the same thing behind it. Whether it be in Yemen or Beirut, or in Syria, in Iraq, you always find Iran engaged....If you live in the region, there's no doubt what Iran is doing." "So when Syria, which has made no...excuse for what they're doing alongside Iran, when they are providing throughput for Iran to give weapons, including more sophisticated weapons, to the Lebanese Hizbullah, Israel has an absolute right to defend themselves. They don't have to wait until their citizens are dying under attack before they actually address that issue."
