<p>Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) called on Israel to &#8220;de-escalate&#8221; over the weekend after an unprovoked attack from Hezbollah, an Islamic terrorist group backed by Iran, killed 12 children inside of Israel.</p>
<p>Schumer made the remarks during a Sunday interview on CBS News&#8217; &#8220;Face The Nation&#8221; while talking about the strikes that were launched from Lebanese soil.</p>
<p>&#8220;We know that Iran, through its surrogates, Hamas, Hezbollah, Houthis, is really the real evil in this area,&#8221; Schumer said. &#8220;And Israel has every right to defend itself against Hezbollah, like they do against Hamas. It&#8217;s sort of – it shows you how bad Iran and its surrogates are. These were Arab kids they shot out. They don&#8217;t care – they sent missiles at. And they don&#8217;t even care who that is.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;But having said that, I don&#8217;t think anyone wants a wider war,&#8221; he added. &#8220;So I hope there are moves to de-escalate.&#8221;</p>
<p>Schumer said that he refused to shake Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu&#8217;s hand while he was in the U.S. last week because he had &#8220;serious disagreements&#8221; with Israel&#8217;s war against the genocidal Hamas terrorists who launched the unprecedented October 7 attack last year.</p>
