Retired Air Force Brig. Gen. Blaine Holt told Newsmax on Tuesday that he fears Hamas' attack on Israel over the weekend is only the beginning of a much larger terror campaign directed by Iran.
"I'm relieved not to have a clearance that way I can speak clearly about this," Holt said during an appearance on Newsmax's "The Record with Greta Van Susteren." "I would assume, and I would be shocked to learn if we did not have a clear understanding about where the funding, the support, and the genesis of this comes from."
The Biden administration has pushed back on speculation that its release of $6 billion in frozen Iranian assets last month was funneled to Hamas and used to fund the Saturday attack on Israel. The land, sea and air assault on the Jewish State left approximately 1,100 Israelis dead and more than 2,000 people injured. At least 830 Palestinians have been killed in Israel's retaliatory air strikes on the Gaza Strip.
