President Biden's perceived lenient stance on dealing with Iran has once again led to devastating attacks on American troops. Just a fortnight ago, Biden confidently asserted that he had sent a strong message to Iran, stating arrogantly, "They know not to do anything." However, in a tragic and infuriating turn of events, three courageous U.S. service members were ruthlessly killed, and many others left severely wounded in an Iranian drone strike at a base in Jordan over the weekend.
National Security Council spokesman John Kirby shamelessly attempted to defend Biden's weak response, highlighting the administration's supposed "significant" and "aggressive" actions in handling Iranian aggression. However, it is evident that this ineffective approach has only emboldened Iran to carry out more audacious attacks on our military.
BIDEN (16 days ago): "I've already delivered the message to Iran. They know not to do anything."

President Biden, previously seemingly residing in a delusional world where Iran would miraculously heed his feeble warnings, has finally acknowledged the attack on U.S. troops by Iran-backed militant groups operating in Syria and Iraq. He declared that the perpetrators would be held accountable at a time and in a manner of his choosing.
The Biden administration's ongoing attempts to downplay Iran's responsibility for these heinous attacks, treating our troops' lives as expendable, are utterly despicable. The weak response from the White House raises serious concerns about the safety and security of our military personnel in the face of Iranian aggression. It is high time for President Biden to cease diplomatic games and take decisive action to protect American lives and interests in the Middle East.
