their conventional capabilities will never compare with israel's and our commitment to israel's qualitative military edge helps guaranty that. over the last several years iran has had to spend billions of dollars to support its only ally in the arab world, bashar al-assad. even as he has lost control of huge chunks of his country. and hezbollah suffered significant blows on this same battlefield. and iran like the rest of the region is being forced to respond to the threat of isil in iraq. so contrary to the alarmists who claim that iran is on the brink of taking over the middle east, or even the world, iran will remain a regional power with its own set of challenges. the ruling regime is dangerous and it is repressive. we will continue to have sanctions in place on iran's support for terrorism and violation of human rights. we will continue to insist upon the release of americans detained unjustly. we will have a lot of differences with the iranian regime. but if we're serious about confronting iran's destablizing activities, it is hard to imagine a worse approach than blocking this deal.
