Summary of Article: Yesterday, U.S. lawmakers passed a law opposing Iran's nuclear ambitions and pledging to support Israel should Israel have to strike Iran militarily for self-defense reasons. This vote sends a strong message because the Senate passed it unanimously, with all politicians agreeing. It also shows U.S. loyalty to Israel.
