Iran Launches Attack on U.S. Consulate in Iraq and Biden Still Pursues a Deal

As Iranian terrorists attack an American consulate in Iraq and threaten former American officials, the Biden administration is scrambling in what appears to be a last-ditch attempt to revive the Iran appeasement — and might even be prepared to delist Iran from its terrorist list.

The attack in Iraq involved at least 12 ballistic missiles. They were launched from Iran overnight and landed near the American consulate at Erbil, Iraq. The State Department reported there was no damage to the consulate and no casualties, but it condemned the attack as “outrageous.”

Yet America is declining to call off negotiations in the aftermath of the attack. “We will have to see” about the fate of the deal, the national security adviser, Jake Sullivan, told CBS this morning.

“North Korea Restarts Work at Punggye-ri Nuclear Testing Site, Report Says”

There’s always more fish in that nuclear sea to reward for their nuclear treachery. Kim Sung Un just flung another missile near Japan in trying to get moneybags Biden’s attention for some of those leftover Iranian goodies. Biden did not confront them because he was too busy figuring how much of a reward he should bribe Kim with to play nice

Biden (Obama) is in fact even more likely to sign onto an even worse deal now. I’m sure the pallets of taxpayer cash are being loaded as we speak.

It’s clear, crystal clear, the people running the meat puppet that is Biden are intentionally harming America and Americans. And yet, somehow the people in the blue part of Ohio are unconcerned.

Iran Launches Attack on U.S. Consulate in Iraq and Biden Still Pursues a Deal By Using Russians As His Negotiators.

Nothing to do with a deal IMHO - its about getting the Mad Mullahs a nuclear warhead as fast as possible so they can launch on the hated USA, Israel, and Rome. Mullahs hate the USA and so does Biden - birds of a feather and all that.

I bet FJB is thinking this will be his great legacy....which I suspect was his goal in leaving Afghanistan.

All the wrong reasons...

What kind of benefit can this deal be for America? We will ultimately be funding our own destruction. Isn’t this proof enough to the American people that Biden is intentionally trying to sabotage the U.S.?

Does consulate in this context mean the same as embassy?

The dividends of a weak and incompetent president just keep piling up.

Quite the ROI for those who helped steal an election.

It’s not that Iran thinks Biden can be intimidated, it’s that they know he won’t do anything. They can act up all they want and no repercussions will ensue. There next target will be Israel, and/or Saudi Arabia...................................

No. There is the U.S. Embassy in Baghdad, but the Consulate in the article is in Erbil, the main city in the Kurdish region of Iraq.
