President Joe Biden is “deliberately” sabotaging any element of surprise in his planned response to the recent killing of three U.S. troops in an attack by Iran-backed militias, according to Rep. Mike Waltz (R-FL), who is calling for both a “strong military response” and a “complete policy shift” to return to former President Donald Trump’s “maximum” economic pressure on the Iranian regime.
In an exclusive statement to Breitbart News on Friday, Waltz, a member of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, House Armed Services Committee, and House Foreign Affairs Committee, addressed the U.S. military’s recent announcement that three American troops were killed and 25 injured in a drone attack in Jordan.
“Three American service members are dead and dozens injured, and now the Biden administration is deliberately telegraphing to Iran what their response will be — eliminating any element of surprise,” he said, referring to Biden’s announcement of his decision on a response to the strike Tuesday, which included his reassurance he does not seek a “wider war in the Middle East.”
The Florida congressman, who served as a Special Forces commander in Afghanistan, expressed his fear that Biden is “once again trying to check the box with meaningless strikes that target warehouses rather than punish the Iran regime.”
According to Waltz, who is a colonel in the National Guard as well as a former White House and Pentagon policy adviser and the first Green Beret to be elected to Congress, “not only does this require a strong military response but also a complete policy shift back to the Trump maximum pressure on Iran’s economy.”

“ Can someone here specifically define the meaning of this term?”
Sure thing. It means the Houthis, Hama, Hezbolla, and various other assorted and sundry arab head choppers are getting weapons made in Iran, training from the Iranians, monetary support, intelligence support, and logistical support from the government of Iran.
Any other questions I can help with?

This is Susan Rice. She is afraid she won’t be able to go home when she retires.
Why Sunday? Their Sunday or our Sunday?
THEY’re either owned by CHINA or IRAN or both!
Yes, can you show proof of this?
Biden is doing what traitors do.
The DoD is in possession of loads of evidence.
Go ask them. Or you could do a bit of your own research.
You wanted an explanation of the term and I provided one. I’m not here to do your work for you.

I’m guessing Mark Milley called his bestie in Iran and gave him a complete list of targets.
The DoD has zero specific proof that Iran backed the attack on Tower 22…zero.
Killing 3 troops is in no way helpful to their cause or gathering of strength.
Keep calling for genocide as you have been for months.
No one takes you seriously. Just another internet tough guy.
“The DoD has zero specific proof that Iran backed the attack on Tower 22…zero.”
So your position is that the Houthis got these rather advanced weapons from….where exactly? They built them all on their own? Santa brought them for Christmas?
“Keep calling for genocide as you have been for months.”
“Gazan” is not a race. Neither is “muslim”.
Now go hump someone else’s leg.
You’re boring me.

The Houthi rebels aren’t responsible for the attack on the Jordan/Syria border.
Off by 1500 miles you dimwitted cretin.
Iran is responsible for all the wars in the Middle East
I used to think it was Iraq many many many years ago , but it was and still is Iran
Started with the marine barracks. Regan disappointed me by not retaliating properly. Sank some navel vessels that’s about it. Should have used his big bombs.
Anyways , nuclear war is coming soon to the Middle East. Within 10 years.
You see , the universities in USA are being run by progressive racists antisemitism and will be a matter of time before these same progressive take over congress, in 10 years the USA won’t give a shit about Israel , Iran will have the bomb and they will nuclear bomb each other taking other countries with them. Millions will die.
I’m very pessimistic lol
“Biden goons told Iran exactly what targets would be hit so the terrorists already left, days ago.”
Yep. An attack they could use to continue their propaganda on how strong Biden is.
Wars should be fought 100 percent or not at all.
We never will, yet many here keep pushing as though we will.
FR is loaded with Charlie Browns lining up to kick Lucy’s hold.
Not only did he give them time to move people and equipment to safe places, but has given Iran eyes in the Pentagon. https://www.frontpagemag.com/did-iran-agent-serving-as-pentagon-chief-of-staff-cause-death-of-3-soldiers/
The worst of all for is interventionist and weakness at the same time.
Which is our current modus operandi.
Giving aide and comfort to the enemy
You know what needs to be done
