President Biden and Vice President Harris will meet with national security officials in the White House Situation Room on Monday, as Iran reiterates its intention to punish Israel for the apparent assassination of top Hamas political leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.

The meeting will focus on developments in the Middle East, the White House said. Concerns about a wider regional conflict have escalated with the assassination of Haniyeh.

While Israel has not acknowledged the strike in Iran, Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei vowed to seek revenge against Israel after Haniyeh’s death.

Attacks by Iran and the Iranian-backed Hezbollah militant group could come as soon as Monday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken told leaders with the Group of Seven on a conference call Sunday, Axios reported, citing three sources briefed on the call.

They are probably drafting a letter to Israel warning them not escalate the conflict when Iran attacks

And why is Harris included in the Situation Room? I thought that Biden was still the nominal head of our government. Is Hunter also going to be there?

[Jonny7797]

The only thing we have going in our favor is Iran said it just wants to bitch slap Israel, not get into all out war. Problem is the democrats and war hungry RINOs want war with Iran.

Where were they yesterday? Sleeping?

LET ME COUNT THE WAYS———

As long as it’s in good hands! 🤣

[hardspunned]

It depends on what kind of situation they’re dealing with. Maybe Joe needs a change.

[Freedumb]

Is Biden gonna tell Israel to “take the win” again after the mad mullahs launch a massive attack on them?

[SunkenCiv]

There's a recent change to the sign of the door, it now reads, "Make a Bad Situation Worse Room".

That's where (and today is when) Biden will have his "health emergency" and Harris will become acting fake POTUS.

And she's better and spewing talking points, but she'll be having a "health emergency" of her own after he croaks out and she's sworn in.

That sure makes me confident

[dowcaet]

Photo op for Harris to show her “commanding” presence. Bet on it.
