Israel-US vs Iran War Live Updates: US Democrats Question Justification for Iran Strikes, Say No Imminent Threat to America

Several Democratic lawmakers have challenged the Trump administration’s justification for strikes on Iran, arguing there was no imminent threat to the United States in the escalating Israel US Iran war.

Senator Mark Warner, vice-chair of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said after a classified briefing that while there may have been a security threat to Israel, there was no direct or immediate danger posed to the US homeland.

Representative Joaquin Castro also criticised comments from Secretary of State Marco Rubio, suggesting that Israel’s actions risked placing US forces in harm’s way and that Washington chose to join the conflict rather than pursue de-escalation.

The remarks reflect growing political debate in Washington over America’s expanding role in the broader Middle East conflict escalation and the strategic implications of deeper US military involvement.
