President Biden on Friday warned that the U.S. stands prepared to “act forcefully” to protect its citizens from attacks after a suspected Iranian-made drone was used in an attack that killed an American contractor and wounded at least five troops in Syria.
In remarks during a joint press conference with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in Ottawa, Mr. Biden offered his condolences to the families of those lost in the attack and commended the U.S. military for its response.
“Make no mistake, the U.S. does not … seek conflict with Iran but be prepared to act forcefully to protect our people,” he said. “That’s exactly what happened last night.”
The Defense Department said in a statement the drone used in the attack against a U.S. base in Syria on Thursday appeared to be of Iranian origin and U.S. Central Command said the attack was carried out by “groups affiliated with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).”
Mr. Biden said he was briefed on the attack while aboard Air Force One en route to Canada and ordered a series of air strikes targeting those responsible.

It’s more effective if you just hit them without telegraphing your intentions like a skoolyard blowhard.
Can’t get the traction on the Ukraine war.
Time to move on to Plan B.
A blind man could see it.
Ought not forget that Trump ordered the military to leave Syria. the deep state led by General Miley disobeyed the order. American soldiers are dying and being maimed doing the bidding of the globalists and neocons that control and run the corrupt, demented Biden.
Why do we have troops in Syria in the first place? This seems like a reasonable question to ask. The United States is not at war with Syria, and Syria’s legitimate government never invited us onto its territory and has repeatedly asked us to leave.
Well, they’ve got to drag us into a nuke fest somehow.
Biden’s plan: A nasty attitude letter in the New York Times.
Since Afghanistan the world knows Biden is a tissue paper tiger. That’s dangerous to our armed forces in uniform.
Nobody F’s with a Biden..........
OIL IMHO
After which he looked up at the Gen Z "briefer," paused, and said, "You're telling me the Canucks have drones now? Is that what you're telling me?"
Rockets?
This dementia ridden a-hole is the absolute weakest and most dangerous President of all time. That kills and manes American soldiers. The consequences? None. We are entangled all over the world and we have a chit load of woke loser generals, joint chiefs and DefSec, all of which are lead by Biden. The world has no respect, and given all-time lows in military recruitment, the vast majority of military-aged men have no respect.
Quick, give them some more pallets of cash. Pants crapping, demented trash.
Hey you, I’m gonna punch you in the nose, so you better get ready...cuz I’m tough....
“Why do we have troops in Syria in the first place? This seems like a reasonable question to ask. The United States is not at war with Syria, and Syria’s legitimate government never invited us onto its territory and has repeatedly asked us to leave.”
How dare you ask these questions. You some kind of subversive Marine?
Weiniehead.... he’s a real one. Unlike you.
And he seems to understand the Constitution.
We have troops in many countries. We have to act as the superpower. Except we are broke with debt 150% of GDP.
I often tell the young men I work alongside they don’t have to submit to conscription if/when the election stealing pieces of $#!+ in Congress and the White House reimpose it. I’ll show them how to put “Hell, no! We won’t go!” into action should that Xiden punk try to get them maimed, crippled, or killed in Syria or Ukraine. “Fighting for our country” would mean protecting our borders, NOT enforcing the NWO in places working Americans have no need of knowing where to find on a world map!
Here goes another aspirin factory.
