Washington, DC: Following reports that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will address a joint session of Congress, Congressman Mike Turner released the following statement:
“The threat of violent Islamic Terrorism and the danger of a nuclear Iran are not isolated to any one part of the world. We must work together with the nation of Israel and all our allies to confront these global challenges.

The nation of Israel and its people continue to have my full support.”
