The Islamic Republic of Iran is increasingly unconstrained.
Of most immediate concern are Iran's continued attempts to kill American citizens on U.S. soil. In recent months, the FBI has disrupted advanced Iranian assassination plots against former national security adviser John Bolton and former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. Alongside other former Trump administration officials, they continue to receive full-time security details in the face of this threat. This necessary security provision is costing taxpayers millions of dollars every month.
President Joe Biden should be confronting Iran over these provocations, which are all acts of terror inspired or ordered by Iran's theocratic regime. Instead, he settles for issuing an occasional indictment and deploying more junior administration officials to condemn Tehran in the mildest terms possible. Yes, national security adviser Jake Sullivan warns of serious consequences for Iran, but only after its leaders succeed at killing an American on U.S. soil.
Fearing the second holocaust that Iran's leaders have repeatedly promised for Israel, Israeli leaders are understandably concerned. Prime Minister Yair Lapid has taken great pains to show respect for Biden in spite of the disadvantage at which the American president is putting him. Lapid has avoided public criticisms of Biden's Iran negotiating strategy, instead raising his concerns in private.
