U.S. Conducts Defensive Precision Strike
Dept of Defense ^ | 2/25/21 | Dept of Defense

Posted on 02/25/2021 5:47:11 PM PST by C210N

“At President Biden’s direction, U.S. military forces earlier this evening conducted airstrikes against infrastructure utilized by Iranian-backed militant groups in eastern Syria. These strikes were authorized in response to recent attacks against American and Coalition personnel in Iraq, and to ongoing threats to those personnel. Specifically, the strikes destroyed multiple facilities located at a border control point used by a number of Iranian-backed militant groups, including Kait’ib Hezbollah (KH) and Kait’ib Sayyid al-Shuhada (KSS).

This proportionate military response was conducted together with diplomatic measures, including consultation with Coalition partners. The operation sends an unambiguous message: President Biden will act to protect American and Coalition personnel. At the same time, we have acted in a deliberate manner that aims to de-escalate the overall situation in both eastern Syria and Iraq.”

I thought one fought to win. Silly me.

Sometimes you just want to send a message, like when Trump lobbed a few missiles into Syria.

The following is UNREAL folks.

I've been saying that the WHut website does not have any PR about Syria this evening. One could say that's because it's after business hours.

But, just moments ago (9:45 give or take), on the WHut site, a NEW PR with regard to good relations with Kenya.. This is well after "business hours".

Folks, the 25th amendment is NOW ON THE FAST TRACK!

Biden’s such a poser. He didn’t direct anything.

A war would provide an excellent excuse to transfer Trump-supporting military members out of the country.

Then watch Biden opportunists target domestic political opposition freely with a vetted military force.

“Just hearing that kamala was not informed of the strike, and is pissed about being out of the loop... “

Also Eric Swallowwell, pencil neck and The Queen of Mean, Hilarious.

Possibly.

However, current signs point to more and more entities aware of this strike except one: the WH.

Why would the WH be silent?

We are going to hurt Iran by bombing Syria?

Don’t be too concerned about Iran. Or Syria.

Imagine yourself as Truman in the Truman Show. All of us are Truman.

This 100 minute movie (1998) follows Truman’s journey of understanding his reality, from completely unaware to completely aware.

The only question for us is, where each of us as individuals current are in our journeys, and where in our understanding we are going next.

Now, for those that see and recall the movie, imaged Biden as Truman’s dad. Into boating with his son...

Somebody posted a link about Democrats trying to get Joe to give up nuclear weapons - it was a couple of days ago or so but I didn’t get back to it

Good grief. Could you image if we sent troops to that hell hole cesspool?

If this was in response to an American being killed in the strikes on us, then I’m fine with it.

Why are we ‘making friends’ and ‘killing people’ who are not at war with us?
The US should not invest blood & treasure for some minor ally who has constant beefs with their neighbors.
Not. Our. Problem...

That’s another plane-load of cash that Biden will have to send Iran to “Normalize” relations.

Attacking Iraqi forces fighting against ISIS in Syria is not “defensive”. It is aggression.

Why are we ... ‘killing people’

Have you heard any confirmation or second source that we are ‘killing people’? Who is 'we'?
