On Saturday's "CNN Newsroom," House Armed Services Committee Ranking Member Rep. Adam Smith (D-WA) stated that he believes the Biden administration will advise Israel that "they should look to de-escalate across the board where possible." Smith also argued that the Iranian attack on Israel "underscores the need to get to a ceasefire in Gaza, to get humanitarian assistance into Gaza, and to have an endpoint to that conflict, completely admitting Israel's right to defend itself there, without question. But things need to calm down or Israel is vulnerable in the region."
