Pastor John Hagee of Christians United for Israel issued a statement on X insisting that “Israel has done the world a favor in preventing a nuclear Iran.”

Hagee, senior pastor of Cornerstone Church in San Antonio, maintains that “Israel is protecting its nation, the free world, and God willing, creating a path to liberation for the people of Iran.”

“[W]e stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel and her people,” he proclaimed, assuring the people of Israel, “you are not alone.”
