Rep. Rich McCormick, R-Ga., told Newsmax on Monday he thinks it’s “great” that Qatar has reserved the right to respond to Iran’s attack on the U.S. military base in Doha.

Combined, they have a larger military and a larger economy than Iran, almost as many people. Saudi Arabia has one of the biggest investments in the military in the entire world when it comes to GDP, and they’re a wealthy nation.”
“I think Iran is very much isolated,” he continued. “I think this could be very good for world peace as they find themselves more and more isolated as a terrorist-sponsoring nation. I think it’s only going to result in good things, especially if they’re destabilized and the people rise up against that evil, evil regime.”
