North Carolina lawmakers react to U.S. Strikes on Iranian nuclear sites

The U.S. attacked three Iranian nuclear sites on Saturday, according to President Donald Trump.

In a post on Truth Social, Trump said the attack was “very successful”
and all planes are now “outside of Iran air space.”

“A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site,
Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home,” the post read in part.

North Carolina lawmakers are now responding to Trump’s
announcement.

“The Islamic Republic of Iran and its terroristic
mullahs have been a threat to peace in the Middle East, the United States, and
to the global community for decades,” said Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. “An
Iran with a nuclear bomb gives birth to a world in jeopardy of cataclysmic
destruction. President Trump worked to negotiate with the regime in good faith,
however Ali Khamenei overplayed his hand and now must pay the price. May God
protect the innocent lives at stake and the United States and Israel’s
righteous efforts to put an end to the grievous bloodshed carried out by Iran
and its jihadi proxies. God bless our servicemen safely on their way home
tonight.”

Senator Thom Tillis posted on X, calling this the “right decision.” 

“This was the right decision by @POTUS: we cannot allow Iran to build nuclear weapons. God Bless our brave servicemembers who supported and executed this mission.”

President Trump is expected to address the nation Saturday night at 10
p.m.
