But we will absolutely do what is required to protect ourselves and to continue that mission and to respond appropriately to these attacks

Apparently not - or it would be done by now.

Sometimes you anger everyone in order to create war.

So....

War with Russia - good.

War with Iran - bad.

CNN reporting that the Biden administration has no intention of directly attacking Iran.

Will the media show their return and flag draped coffins? The funerals of our 2 naval servicemen lost at sea?

Ignore it and it will go away. Just like they have done the border.

Not to change the subject but, “Hey Joe, can we get an update on your progress in accounting for the American hostages taken by Hamas last year in Gaza? Please stop looking at your watch and answer the question...Joe, Joe?”

I don’t, for a minute, believe their DEI excuse (incompetent drone operators), more likely our defenses were defeated.

Hmm, someone with a nuclear arsenal larger than ours invades the rest of another country after we did nothing after they took the first bit, and now D.C. says we must get involved no matter the risk.

But another country which can't even get spare parts for the ancient planes they bought from us continually kills and maims our own service men by proxy and we cannot risk escalation.

When will the majority of Americans wake up and realize that the people in D.C. don't care about the country they are supposed to protect and represent ?

(that the administration “does not want a war” and “does not want to escalate.”)

Except where they want it to happen - their idiocy will result in.....

After all, they gave how much money to Iran? Ezekiel 38 is coming.

The fact that nothing has been done shows we had no contingency plans for this.

The boy’s response will be to drag the families of those killed to Washington and put them up in the State of the Union Show’s peanut gallery so they can start doing anti-Trump tricks for Joe Pedo when he snaps his fingers at them. It’s called exploiting the deaths of your loved ones for an anti-American commie RAT.

With this President and his administration I believe if the Mexican cartels invaded the US they would promptly surrender.

Iran declares war by attacking our soldiers directly,znd blatantly... but obiden says he doesn’t want a war? We are in a war! How many more soldiers are going to die needlessly before he understands that fact?

Unbelievable!

Every word from the Biden White House and Pentagon show this administration, are pu*sies! Following the example of Jimmy Carter.

Does it even matter that Iran declared war on the US back in 1978? Does it even matter that Iran has said when it gets nukes, NYC will be one of the first targets?

So, the goal is to prolong the war by avoiding doing anything that would result in a win? Too bad they don’t use the same philosophy against Republicans.

...administration “does not want a war” and “does not want to escalate.”

I cannot recall in my adult life ever reading such a pathetically weak statement from the US government.
