I'm not sure I've ever seen such an incompetent group in my lifetime as the Biden administration.
We were given fair warning about Joe Biden from Obama's Secretary of Defense Robert Gates. In his 2014 memoir, Gates said the then-vice president had "been wrong on nearly every major foreign policy and national security issue over the past four decades." Now make that five decades, and add he's been wrong about virtually every major foreign policy issue so far that he's faced during his presidency. Gates doubled down on those claims during a 2021 interview on CBS' "60 Minutes," saying, "I think he’s gotten a lot wrong," specifically mentioning the Afghanistan withdrawal.
Now we're faced with yet another situation due to Biden's bad foreign policy, this time with Iran and the militants they use to fight us. There have been more than 160 attacks on U.S. forces or assets, with three people killed now and dozens injured over those assaults, some with possible traumatic brain injuries. Yet, the Biden response has been largely impotent and has not cowed Iran or the militants.
Not only hasn't Biden responded yet to the attack on the troops in Jordan by Kataib Hezbollah in which 3 American troops were killed and more than 30 were injured, but Biden's team has listed possible targets in such detail as to raise questions about telegraphing to the enemy.

Since we wrote those stories, they've given out even more information, saying they were going to launch a series of attacks for days against targets — including Iranian personnel and facilities — inside Iraq and Syria.
As Fox News' chief national security correspondent at the Pentagon Jennifer Griffin noted, now the IRGC commanders in those areas have left and gone into hiding.
And all of those IRGC commanders have already left Syria and gone into hiding leaving those bases. The Pentagon usually does not telegraph so much if it wants the element of surprise. https://t.co/mdrUPz8otp— Jennifer Griffin (@JenGriffinFNC) February 1, 2024
"The Pentagon usually does not telegraph so much if it wants the element of surprise," she said. Yes, if. So why are they telegraphing so much now? Do they want the IRGC to flee so it looks like they're hitting something consequential even though the IRGC leaders will be gone?
Griffin also reposted this:
🚨🚨🚨
EXCLUSIVE:
Haj Askar, the top commander of the #IRGC militia in northeastern Syria, has already escaped to Iran, anticipating possible U.S. airstrikes targeting Iranian-backed militia locations.

The expert in the area who made that tweet responded to Griffin that she was right.
You're absolutely right. The senior leadership in the #IRGC militias has left Syria for Iran, especially the foreign commanders among them.
We are from northeast Syria and cover the movements of these militias on a daily basis.

Thanks, Joe Biden, foreign policy genius!
Griffin told Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin that some of the IRGC commanders were now back in Tehran. She asked a blunt question, "Has there been too much telegraphing or is the point not to kill any Iranian commanders?"
In terms of answering the telegraphing question, he just said he wouldn't "speculate." Thanks, another non-answer from Austin.
So one has to think they're telegraphing for a reason.
Thinking the Biden admin wants "the element of surprise" assumes Biden wants to hurt Iran. But he doesn't. He has made this abundantly clear, over and over again. Biden is telegraphing whatever meager retaliation is coming precisely so it won't hurt Iranian personnel. https://t.co/7Ndv6hgMPu— Noah Pollak (@NoahPollak) February 1, 2024
Obama did the same thing. Always told the terrorists what we were going to do. Biden even told Al Qaeda how to get Seal Team Six. These people are worse than traitors.
It’s Valerie Jarrett who is telegraphing.
But Griffin will still vote Democrat !
Jenn is deep state. The words that come out of her mouth are put there by the 3-letter agencies.
Looks like the people who really run the country are done with Biden.
Joetato will shoot a camel in the butt and call it a day.
That’s why I asked if they had copies of the plans yet.

Iranian Proxies Scatter Ahead Of Looming U.S. Retaliation Strikes
Plans are already leaking about the extent of the expected attacks in response to the deadly drone strike on U.S. soldiers in Jordan.

Of course everyone here knows that the Joint Chiefs have known Iranians working for them, complete with whatever security clearances need to work there?
The Iranians were likely part of the JS planning teams.
Traitorjoe and SecDefComPoop are doing what comes naturally for them - giving aid and comfort to the domestic and foreign enemies of the United States.
giving aid and comfort to the enemy is treason
