Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said it’s wrong for the United States to seek a cease-fire between Israel and Hamas and instead should tell Israel to “finish the job.”

“We should be saying plain and clear, finish the job,” Pompeo said Sunday morning on “Fox News Sunday.”

Pompeo’s comments follow the news that Israeli strikes killed several top officials of the Iranian-backed Lebanese militant group Hezbollah. The group’s top leader, Hassan Nasrallah, was killed and, on Sunday, the Israel Defense Forces confirmed it had killed Nabil Kaouk, a preventative security commander.

The strikes and increased tension in the region have sparked concerns that an all-out war could happen nearly a year after the Israel-Hamas war began and when there’s no clear cease-fire deal in sight.

Pompeo, who served in the Trump administration, argued Nasrallah and other Hezbollah leaders would “be alive today” if Israel and Hamas had agreed to the previous cease-fire deals drafted by the Biden administration.
