“Last night, with clear intent, bright hope, and in numbers too large and too widespread to dismiss, the American people voted for a fresh start, a new direction, and a nation as great as ever.

WASHINGTON – Congressman Darrell Issa (CA-48) released the following statement:

“The elimination of Yahya Sinwar is both overdue and richly deserved. He was not only the architect of October 7th, but also a lifelong unapologetic terror master completely committed to the destruction of Israel. He was also responsible for untold deaths and had American blood on his hands. The Middle East is a better place without him, and the prospect for an enduring peace with security for Israel and the region is more possible today than yesterday.
