Southern Baptist leader calls Joe Biden comments on Iran sad and ‘disgusting’

Richard Land offered a strong rebuke of Joe Biden in response to a Brit Hume tweet of this quote, “For a former [VP] to tell a murderous regime that the current president is recklessly starting a major conflict is only to encourage that regime to react violently. Biden’s words themselves are dynamite in a tinderbox and are..inexcusable.”

Land called the comments of former Vice President Joe Biden both sad and “disgusting.” He tweeted, “Sadly, so very true—and disgusting behavior!”

Sadly, so very true—and disgusting behavior!

Land is the president of Southern Evangelical Seminary. He is the former head of the Southern Baptist Convention’s Ethics and Religious Liberty Commission (ERLC).
