Pennsylvania Democratic U.S. Senator John Fetterman said in an interview that President Donald Trump should end negotiating with Iran and, instead, strike the country’s nuclear facilities through military strikes.

In an interview Wednesday with the Washington Free Beacon, Fetterman said he wants military action, not diplomacy.

He says a military attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities is the best way to deal with the country.

“Waste that s**t,” said Fetterman.

Fetterman also called the Palestinian militant group, Hamas a “bunch of tunnel rats with junkie rockets in the back of a Toyota truck.”

Fetterman has been a strong-supporter of Israel, waving an Israeli flag outside his house after pro-Palestinian protesters gathered outside his house earlier this year.
