NEWS REPORT:

Since the day it began, the war between Israel and Hamas has resulted in almost nothing but significant tragedy. Thousands in Israel and Gaza have become victims of a violent war, and the death toll continues to rise. Additionally, the terrorist group wreaking havoc in the Middle East is not only a threat to Israel, but to any of Israel’s allies. And in recent development, experts are warning that the Israel-Hamas conflict could trigger a broader war throughout the Middle East.

USA Today highlighted “flashpoints” that have occurred since October 7 such as, the Houthis, an Iranian-backed militant group, firing missiles into the Red Sea, American bases in the Middle East under attack, and Lebanon’s Iranian-backed militia, Hezbollah, increasing their attacks at northern Israel. Additionally, with both the war in Israel and America’s southern border wide open, terror threats are soaring.

“The war has already reached much of the Middle East,” said Paul Salem from the think tank, Middle East Institute. “The risk is that the aperture and intensity of conflict will steadily ratchet up in the coming weeks and months unless there is sharp progress to reverse course.” But to see the atrocities of war for himself, Sam Brownback, former U.S. Ambassador at Large for International Religious Freedom, took a trip to the Gaza border last month.

Brownback, joined by Family Research Council’s Ken Blackwell and other evangelical Christian leaders, met with hostage families and Israeli military officials. “It’s horrific,” he said on Wednesday’s episode of “Washington Watch,” hosted by FRC President Tony Perkins. Brownback shared that he’s been to Israel on at least nine separate occasions, but no visit compared to this most recent one.

“We were at a lunch in Tel Aviv and had a missile attack going on,” he explained. “Now, the Iron Dome stopped it, but everybody had to get up and go to the shelter. During that [same visit, we also] went to the kibbutz that … had been overrun by the terrorists, and people [were] just slaughtered indiscriminately.”
