I don't normally weigh in on Federal issues, I have enough state options on my plate, but I did want to comment on the actions taking place between US Forces and Iran.

Since my teenage years, 50 years ago, I've been hearing the mullahs in Iran screaming death to America! For all of my adult life I have seen Iran kill Americans across the globe. In 1979, they took US Marines hostage and others from the US Embassy in Tehran that lasted 444 days.

In 1983, over 240 Marines were killed with a car bomb at the Beirut Barracks. In 2000 US Navy sailors were killed in the bombing of the USS Cole. USAF barracks were bombed in Saudi Arabia more than once killing service members. The list goes on and on, from hijackings, and terrorist acts.

Iran has funded terrorism, targeted American service members, threatened our allies, and openly called for Death to America. At some point, they will carry out their threats. They kill their own citizens by the thousands, foreigners would be an easy target.

In the 21st Century, techology can overcome the huge Pacific and Atlantic Oceans that protected us for years. The United States cannot allow Iran to build a nuclear weapon. A nuclear-armed Iran would destabilize the Middle East, endanger American troops, and threaten our homeland. Deterrence only works when our enemies know we are serious.

I lived, and nearly died in the Middle East for years, amongst the danger. I know some there yearn for freedom, but also the hatred that some have for our way of life. It was likely Iranian funded explosives, training and technology that nearly killed me as a Marine on patrol in 2005.

As a retired Marine Corps SgtMajor, I understand the gravity of military action. It is never taken lightly, but it must always remain a credible option. When American national security is at stake, weakness invites aggression. The only thing these people respect is strength and force.

God bless our troops in harms way, doing unthinkable tasks on our behalf.

I’m home to be closer to family and serve my community, my neighbors. I’m running for the State Assembly, 102nd District.

02/23/2026

Marc Molinaro has a long record of public service and deep experience representing communities across the 102nd Assembly District. The people deserve strong, responsive leadership focused on affordability, public safety, and delivering real results for our local families, farmers, and small businesses.

I’m confident there is no one better suited to represent this district with the same passion and commitment as I have. I look forward to continuing our partnership to deliver strong representation for our constituents in AD-102 & The 51st Senate District.
