得克萨斯州共和党众议员丹·克伦肖周日表示，随着美国与伊朗之间的紧张局势升级，五角大楼准备向中东增派数千名海军陆战队员，总统特朗普正在”采取必要行动”。
“我认为这表明（美方）有支持任何可能需要的应急行动的决心，”这位国会议员兼前海军海豹突击队员在《面对国家》节目中对玛格丽特·布伦南说道。
“如果你要采取行动，正如我们所做的那样，就需要坚持到底，”他补充道。
当被问及国防部长彼得·赫格斯蒂对美军发出的指示时——赫格斯蒂本月早些时候表示将”没有愚蠢的交战规则”和”没有政治正确的战争”——克伦肖称赞赫格斯蒂的表态是明确的军事语言，要求部队遵守。
“如果你在伊拉克和阿富汗打过这些战争，你就会熟悉糟糕的交战规则，”克伦肖表示，”你知道那种规定——除非被射击否则不能开枪。他（赫格斯蒂）所说的是，我们将毫不留情地打击伊朗军事目标。”
克伦肖称赫格斯蒂”正在为我们的军队明确传达这一点”，并补充说这是美国在许多过去的冲突中所缺乏的。
克伦肖还表示，他并不担心这种措辞会激怒敌人。
“交战规则将非常明确，已制定并书面告知我们的军队，”他说，”我认为这不会传递任何错误信息……我认为这传递的正是正确的信息。”
共和党中的伊斯兰恐惧症言论”相当边缘”
当被问及近日一些共和党议员发表的反穆斯林言论时——包括阿拉巴马州参议员汤米·塔伯维尔发布纽约市市长佐赫拉恩·曼达尼参加斋月活动的照片并附上9/11恐怖袭击的照片，以及田纳西州众议员安迪·奥格尔斯称穆斯林不应属于美国社会——克伦肖称其党内的伊斯兰恐惧症言论”相当边缘”。
克伦肖本月早些时候在共和党初选中失利，其得克萨斯州第二国会选区的任期即将结束。他随后表示：”我的意思是，事实是，激进伊斯兰主义是有害的，对吧？我们一直都知道这一点……这根本不应该是一个有争议的说法。”
“目前共和党在以色列和反犹主义问题上存在冲突，所以你知道，有人可能会说，公开反对这种言论只会火上浇油，”克伦肖称，”所以，我仍然认为这非常边缘。我认为这不是——当然不是政府的立场。我们要打击激进伊斯兰主义，这就是为什么我们需要资助国土安全部等机构，我们也会这么做。”
错误信息被指为初选失利的原因之一
谈及最近的初选失利，克伦肖将错误信息归咎为原因之一。
“我是一个独特的共和党人，你知道，我很长时间以来一直是网络诽谤和阴谋论的目标，我的选举基本上就是这种环境的产物，”他说。
“要吸取的教训是，你必须把真相说出来，必须尝试，”克伦肖表示，”但最终，这是美国人民的选择。你会相信你在网上读到的一切或收到的邮件里的内容吗？”

Rep. Dan Crenshaw says Trump is “doing what’s needed” in the Middle East conflict
Updated on: March 15, 2026 / 5:23 PM EDT / CBS News
Texas Republican Rep. Dan Crenshaw said Sunday that President Trump is “doing what’s needed” as the Pentagon is set to deploy a few thousand more Marines to the Middle East as tensions escalate between the United States and Iran.
“I think it signals that there’s a seriousness of supporting whatever contingency operations might be needed,” the congressman and a former Navy SEAL said on “Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan.”
“If you’re going to do this, which we have done, you need to see it through,” he added.
When asked about the messages being sent to U.S. troops by Department of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who earlier this month said there would be “no stupid rules of engagement” and “no politically correct wars,” Crenshaw commended Hegseth on what he said is clear military language for troops to abide by.
“If you fought in these wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, you’d be well acquainted with bad rules of engagement,” Crenshaw said. “You know the kind of thing that says, look, you can’t shoot unless you’re shot at. What he’s saying is that we are targeting Iranian military without quarter.”
Hegseth is “making it very clear for our military,” Crenshaw said, adding that it is something the U.S. has lacked in many past conflicts.
Crenshaw also said he’s not worried that the language could inflame enemies.
“The rules of engagement will be very clear and in place and in writing for our troops,” he said. “I don’t think it sends any wrong message … I think it sends exactly the right message.”
Islamophobic rhetoric in GOP is “fairly fringe”
Asked about some anti-Muslim messages that emerged from some Republican lawmakers in recent days — including Sen. Tommy Tuberville of Alabama who posted an image of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani at a Ramadan event along with a photo of the 9/11 terror attack, and Rep. Andy Ogles of Tennessee who said Muslims don’t belong in American society — Crenshaw called the Islamophobic rhetoric within his party “fairly fringe.”
Crenshaw, whose term as representative of Texas’s 2nd congressional district is set to end following his loss in the GOP primary earlier this month, then said, “I mean, the truth of the matter is, radical Islamism is bad, right? We’ve always known that … That should not be a controversial statement at all.”
“There’s a Republican conflict ongoing right now over Israel and the antisemitism issues, and so, you know, one could make the argument that speaking out against it has only inflamed it,” Crenshaw said. “So, look, I still think that’s very fringe. I don’t think that’s- that’s certainly not the administration’s position. And like, we’re going to go after radical Islam, that’s why we need to fund agencies like DHS, and that’s what we’re going to do.”
Misinformation blamed for primary loss
On his recent loss in the primary, Crenshaw has blamed misinformation as one of the factors.
“I’m a unique Republican, you know, I’ve been the target of online smears and conspiracies for a very long time. My election was basically a product of that,” he said.
“The lesson to be learned is like, you’ve got to get the truth out. You’ve got to try,” Crenshaw said. “But ultimately, this is a question for the American people. Are you going to believe everything you read online or that’s sent to you in your mail?”
