"The United States of America must always be prepared to use overwhelming military force when necessary to defend our national security interests and protect Americans at home and abroad. A President should have the latitude to make decisions to that end, but only to the extent that those decisions are also consistent with the inherent authority of a Commander-in-Chief under the U. S. Constitution and the provisions of the War Powers Resolution."
"What sets America apart is not only our strength, but how we use it. Our nation has always conducted military operations for just causes and through just and moral means. This must continue in the future; otherwise we forfeit our legitimacy to lead the world."
"I do not support the destruction of a whole civilization. That is not who we are, and it is not consistent with the principles that have long guided America. America is great because America is good."
Rep. Nathaniel Moran publicly disagreed with President Trump's threat to destroy civilizations in Iran, asserting that military force should be used to protect national security interests. He emphasized that America's strength lies in how it uses military power, advocating for just and moral operations. Moran stated that the destruction of a civilization contradicts American principles and that protecting innocent lives is crucial. Rep. Kevin Kiley echoed this sentiment, asserting that the U.S. does not destroy civilizations or use such threats as negotiation tactics.
