Two assassinations in twelve hours have taken out top leaders of Iran’s proxy war against Israel. They also serve as a reminder that the Jewish State is fighting in that war not only her enemies, but ours.

 

Israeli forces eliminated in Beirut Fuad Shukr, a top commander of Hezbollah. They have yet to acknowledge a second air strike in Tehran that killed the head of the so-called “political wing” of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh.

 

Our government rightly deemed both of these jihadists to be terrorists. For four decades, Shukr has had the blood of U.S. Marines on his hands and now that of 15 Israeli children just killed on the Golan Heights. And Haniyeh was a Specially Designated Global Terrorist tied to the murder of seventeen Americans.

 

We had an interest in these monsters’ liquidation. Ditto in helping Israel win our common war.
