美国对抗伊朗核威胁组织（UANI）——该组织由在小布什政府中担任过联合国相关职位的马克·华莱士大使和老布什政府外交官丹尼斯·罗斯于2008年共同创立——旨在对抗伊朗伊斯兰共和国构成的威胁。
该组织一直站在前沿，突出伊朗的人权侵犯行为以及对美国人的袭击，并就德黑兰构成的危险向政策制定者和商界提供建议。
该组织就与伊朗的现有和潜在商业合作伙伴咨询相关法律、财务和声誉风险。
“UANI向执行针对伊朗政权这一历史性使命的美国和以色列军人的勇气和专业精神致敬，”布什和华莱士周六告诉福克斯新闻数字版。
“我们赞扬特朗普总统做出这一军事行动的勇敢决定。47年来，伊朗政权在其国内和整个地区发动恐怖主义、暴力和苦难，同时威胁美国、以色列及其盟友。”
曾在2016年共和党初选中与特朗普激烈竞争的布什和华莱士指出，许多总统都试图将伊朗纳入“和平的国际社会”，但未能完成这项工作。
“这位总统真诚且广泛地寻求外交解决方案，”他们在特朗普上周还表示希望谈判条款后补充道。
“伊朗政权选择升级并继续追求核武器。这一刻的责任完全在于阿亚图拉·哈梅内伊。”
86岁的哈梅内伊在当地时间下午晚些时候被以色列方面宣布死亡。
布什和华莱士补充说，很明显，美以联合行动的目标不是伊朗这个国家和人民，而是哈梅内伊的“致命能力”。
他们表示，伊朗人民长期以来一直遭受镇压，而特朗普自军事打击开始后的表态应该得到所有美国人的支持：“我们的目标是看到伊朗自由、繁荣并实现和平。现在是他们夺回伟大国家的时候了。”
“德黑兰屠夫已死，”布什和华莱士在另一份公开声明中补充道。

布什在X平台上的一份声明中补充道，“史诗般的愤怒行动标志着针对伊朗政权的历史性使命。”
“我们向美国和以色列军人的勇气和专业精神致敬，并赞扬总统的勇敢决定，”他补充道。
自十年前激烈争执以来，布什与特朗普的关系似乎有所缓和。
在2016年竞选期间，特朗普曾给这位共和党家族成员起绰号“低能量杰布”，而当特朗普嘲笑老布什前夫人芭芭拉·布什为儿子拍摄的广告时，布什曾打趣说，这位大亨无法“靠辱骂赢得总统职位”。
在担任州长期间，布什将改善公共教育作为其在塔拉哈西政府的标志性举措。他在基础教育中实施了更严格的熟练标准，并签署了被称为“A+计划”的法案，使佛罗里达州成为首个要求学生成绩明确标注字母等级的州。
他最近称赞特朗普政府对普及学校选择和联邦块状补助的提议是“变革性的机遇”。
“特朗普政府有机会将权力动态重新交还给各州，因为政策制定者最有能力理解和解决学生、学校和社区的多样化需求，”他在《教育周刊》的专栏中补充道。
FIRST ON FOX: A major public policy nonprofit co-led by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush praised President Donald Trump for ordering Saturday’s military strikes against Iran.
United Against a Nuclear Iran (UANI) — was formed in 2008 by Ambassador Mark Wallace, who held a United Nations-centered post in Bush’s brother’s administration, and former George H.W. Bush diplomat Dennis Ross — to combat threats posed by the Islamic Republic.
The group has been on the front lines of highlighting Iran’s human rights abuses and attacks on Americans and advising policymakers and the business community about dangers posed by Tehran.
The organization counsels existing and would-be commercial partners of Iran regarding the legal, financial and reputational risks of that kind of commerce.
“UANI salutes the courage and professionalism of American and Israeli service members carrying out this historic mission against the Iranian regime,” Bush and Wallace told Fox News Digital Saturday.
“We applaud President Trump for his courageous decision to launch this military operation. For 47 years, the Iranian regime has unleashed terror, violence and misery — against its own people and across the region — while threatening the United States, Israel and our allies.”
Bush, who ran against Trump in a bruising 2016 primary, and Wallace noted that many presidents tried to bring Iran into the “peaceful community of nations” but were not able to finish the job.
“This president engaged extensively and in good faith to achieve a diplomatic solution,” they said after Trump indicated as recently as last week he wanted to negotiate terms.
“The regime chose escalation and continued its pursuit of nuclear weapons. The responsibility for this moment rests squarely with Ayatollah Khamenei.”
Khamenei, 86, was declared dead by Israeli sources by late afternoon.
Bush and Wallace added it was clear the joint American-Israeli operation was directed not at Iran, the country and citizenry, but at Khamenei’s “lethal capabilities.”
The Iranian people, they said, have long suffered under repression and that Trump’s message since the strikes began is one that should be embraced by all Americans: “We aim to see Iran free, prosperous, and at peace. This is their time to take their great country back.”
“The Butcher of Tehran is dead,” Bush and Wallace added in a separate public statement.
Bush added in a statement on X that “Operation Epic Fury marks a historic mission against the Iranian regime.”
“We salute the courage and professionalism of American and Israeli service members and commend for his courageous decision,” he added.
Bush’s relationship with Trump has appeared to warm since their bitter feuds of a decade ago.
During the 2016 sweeps, Trump nicknamed the Republican Party scion “Low Energy Jeb,” while Bush quipped that the mogul would not be able to “insult your way to the presidency” after the eventual victor mocked an ad that former first lady Barbara Bush filmed for her son.
While governor, Bush made improving public education a hallmark of his administration in Tallahassee. Bush implemented stricter proficiency standards in elementary education and signed what was dubbed the “A+ plan,” making Florida the first state to require clear letter grades on student performance.

He recently praised the Trump administration’s overtures toward universal school choice and federal block grants as a “transformational opportunity.”
“The Trump administration has a chance to shift the power dynamic back to the states, where policymakers are uniquely equipped to understand and address the diverse needs of their students, schools, and communities,” he added in a column in Education Week.
