Sen. Chris Murphy (D., Conn.) said Israel's attack on Iran was intended to thwart the Trump administration's negotiations with Iran, and risks a regional war.

"Iran would not be this close to possessing a nuclear weapon if Trump and Prime Minister Netanyahu had not forced America out of the nuclear agreement with Iran that had brought Europe, Russia, and China together behind the United States to successfully contain Iran's nuclear ambitions," Murphy said. "This is a disaster of Trump and Netanyahu's own making, and now the region risks spiraling toward a new, deadly conflict." Murphy said America has no obligation to follow Israel into war.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R., S.C.) said on social media that if Iran responds to the Israeli strikes by attacking U.S. personnel and interests in the region, "America should have an overwhelming response, destroying all of Iran's oil."
