The IRGC is now openly recruiting 12-year-olds in plain violation of its international legal obligations.
Sending children to perform military duties with AK-47s isn’t "defending the homeland"—it’s horrific, plain and simple.
The Iranian regime has reached a new level of desperation and depravity.
The world must stop treating these terrorists like a legitimate government.

Ambassador Mike Waltz @USAmbUN - This is exactly the conversation we are having with the UN. This institution needs to do what it was meant to do, instead of all the other ridiculous things it does. Americans are tired of paying for anti-American radical bureaucrats.

My message here clearly struck a nerve. A few friends from when I was press secretary, domestically and abroad, don’t like what I said. Instead of seeing how Western European nations must change, they just want to attack Trump.
The reason it struck a nerve is because they recognize that this time NATO nations are being held to account. They know they’ve come up short for decades and by denying us overflight rights, they’ve gone too far. Americans are fed up, especially with France and Spain. Trump won’t stand for it and they know it. They now fear the consequences of their inaction.
The UK, unlike its days under Thatcher or Blair, is wishy-washy. They’ve often been a good allie, but this time they want to sit it out and have it both ways. We can use their bases, but only for limited operations. At least the UK spends real money on defense.
France, Spain, and Italy are another story. So too is Canada. None of these four contribute seriously to NATO. They’re laggards, trying to get away with it. Spain and France force our pilots to fly thousands of miles out of the way (I thought they didn’t like carbon footprints) en route to Iran.
