Views on Iran
editIn 2011, she suggested it would be a bad idea to bomb Iran in retaliation for their attempted assassination of the Saudi ambassador to the United States on U.S. soil in Washington, D.C.[4] In 2012, she opined it would be an equally bad idea for Israel to bomb Iran's nuclear facilities.[5] In 2014, she renewed her support for a nuclear deal with Iran.[6] Later that year, she professed, "the Israelis probably have less to worry about regarding a nuclear deal with Iran than they might think."[7] A year later, in 2015, she wrote a piece about the possibility of failure of such a deal urging caution.[8]
