Three U.S. soldiers were killed and at least two dozen were injured in a drone attack overnight on a U.S. outpost in Jordan, officials tell CNN. This is the first time U.S. forces have been killed by enemy fire in the Middle East since the beginning of the Gaza war

Agreed. US should not have troops in Syria or Jordan.

That said Biden needs to retaliate immediately. Personally I would nuke Tehran. This will not stop until you cut off the head of the monster.

"And Biden does........... nothing......."

His handlers will make sure he appears at the airport when their bodies are returned, and he'll stand there checking his watch all the time, while telling the families he lost his son Beau in Iraq.

and who is officially in charge of our response; a demented senile old pervert and a sick hiding secretary of defense. Would be a good time for a military based coup and the military take charge of our defenses abroad and at our borders.

BUT... no one will do anything .... “and that is another thing that is against policies; killing out troops.

I’m not convinced that Linda would do what he says he’d do if he actually had the power to do it.

Biden will do something after he is sure that enough of Iran’s military have been able to cross the border and are in position.

They should play that newsreel that showed an atomic test in a typical middle class neiborhood, that might get some attention.

My 14 year old grand daughter has been talking about joining for the last year. It’s her dream upon graduation. Of course, I have mixed feelings about it.

We don’t have them at the one place we absolutely need them: our southern border.

That’s because an ignorant majority of “we the people” have been persuaded by anti-American criminal politicians [in both parties] to support their election to public office.

Iran should have been taken out 40 years ago, when they messed with us under Carter

Iran would have been attacked last night and many Iranians, along with thousands of U.S. servicemen would have died

If the US attacks Iran it is unlikely that any US service people will even be injured. Iran can launch terror attacks from its proxies, but Iran lacks the ability to defend its military or its country from a sophisticated air based attack.

I suppose joining the military can be a good idea if you can get into a technical field. Then you can learn a valuable skill while banking the GI Bill.

But here’s the thing. Actually, two things.

1. Too many young people are swayed by the glitter and glamor. Get to wear a sharp-looking uniform, be the tip of the spear, and all that. A young person considering joining must be aware of - and be able to resist - these superficial impulses.

2. Recruiters will shamelessly lie. A friend of mine joined specifically to get training in electronics. And he was promised training in electronics. What he became was a radio operator in an infantry unit. His electronics “training” was next to nothing, and not at all marketable after he left the service.

Don’t get me wrong. We need good young people to serve in infantry units. We need folks to be the tip of the spear. But join with eyes wide open.

Oh, sure. I guess this is how they’re explain away the results of the Jan 1 attack on Kharkiv.

Do you really believe all the fake Russian talking points?

They can be built locally

So the Houthi's have a sub micron wafer fab out in the desert?

None of the long range guided weapons can be built without modern western semiconductors. The Houthis definitely aren't building GPS receivers, microprocessors, or any other electronic components in Yemen.
