Sen. Tom Cotton on Sunday said militarily strikes against Iran last week were “warranted” and urged the administration to be skeptical when dealing with Tehran.
Cotton said he hoped that such an incident wouldn’t happen, but noted Iran has a “long history” of escalation in the region. Cotton’s remarks come a week after he urged the White House to strike Iran for allegedly attacking two oil tankers. “Unprovoked attacks on commercial shipping warrant a retaliatory military strike against the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he said on CBS’ “Face the Nation.”By signing up you agree to receive email newsletters or alerts from POLITICO.

He said the response to Iran’s threat to violate the enrich uranium beyond the limits set by the Obama-era nuclear deal is up to the European nations in the Iran nuclear deal. Cotton said the Europeans should consider Trump’s restraint last week as an “opening” to “double-down” on economic sanctions.
When you think of this guy Cotton, think, “he’s from Arkansas” and that should take care of it.
Maybe make sure what really happened first...
The most intelligent and wise decision, Mr President.
Pathetic psychopath
Why are you giving him this headline he’s a walking billboard for air strikes of course he thinks they were warranted
Is TomCottonAR just two 3 foot guys standing on each other's shoulders?
It was a Great Interview. I Really enjoy listening to & learning from SenTomCotton. No BS comes from that Patriot🇺🇸 Mr. Cotton Thank You for your service. Our Nation Needs More TruthWarriors like you 🇺🇸🇺🇸 NationalSecurity SecureOurBorders VoteRed2020 VoteDemOut ByeDems
How many tours did you do to come up with that position? What a waste of space. Bonespurs thinks you are stupid to go to THE war. He wants to be the tough guy from 14,000 miles away. GOP makes it so easy. In three sentences you all go to the same nonsense. No plan. No ideas.
Last week, SenTomCotton was all gung ho when realDonaldTrump was going to launch air strikes, but when he canceled the air strikes at the last minute, this is Cotton's reaction to his cancelation.
Hick Tom Cotton needs to fix his clothes as well as his brain!
I have to wonder if tRump said Congress should drop their pants and moon the Iranian Leader just how many of the GOP would agree to do it.
Who cares what that creepy latent homosexual thinks?
When we talk to Tom Cotton, we’re not talking to our best.
SenTomCotton The least of our worries is Iran. Trump escalated that situation. The bigger concern is Russia, and the Saudis because they own him and China because they are a rising power who also owns much of our debt.
going out on a limb... What a joke.
