Israel is our longtime ally and we must work with all of our regional partners to prevent a wider escalation that will undermine Israel’s security and risk an expansion of this conflict. Now more than ever, we must reject the false choice between strength and diplomacy—America must lead with urgency to de-escalate tensions and forge a durable, diplomatic resolution that ensures lasting peace and prevents nuclear proliferation.” # # #
