The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition

Since the beginning of the Gaza war, American troops in Iraq and Syria have been attacked at least 100 times, with a grand total of four responses, including yesterdays "necessary and proportionate strikes."

Dozens of American servicemen have been injured, but the Biden junta is minimizing their injuries, claiming that until yesterday, all have returned to service. Never mind that some had traumatic brain injuries...the sort of injury with which NFL players are sidelined for weeks. And never mind that the only reason many more weren't injured and possibly killed was the backwardness of the attackers and their weapons.

It used to be that attacking American military bases was a big deal, and resulted in things called "wars." But the Biden junta and its handlers in Kalorama are too busy fellating the Iranians to manage much of a response. And make no mistake; these attacks are on orders from Iran.

US retaliates after 3 American service members injured by Kataib Hezbollah attack in Iraq

Three U.S. service members were injured in Iraq on Christmas Day when Kataib Hezbollah terrorists attacked Erbil Air Base, according to Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin.

Austin announced late on Monday night that American forces "conducted necessary and proportionate strikes on three facilities used by Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups in Iraq."

"These precision strikes are a response to a series of attacks against U.S. personnel in Iraq and Syria by Iranian-sponsored militias, including an attack by Iran-affiliated Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups on Erbil Air Base earlier today, and intended to disrupt and degrade capabilities of the Iran-aligned militia groups directly responsible," Austin said in a press release.

The obvious non-response to attacks on American servicemen doesn't go unnoticed. And the trivial and perfunctory "proportionate" response is even more emboldening. What the drooling Jew-hater in the White House is telling the world is that it is perfectly okay to try to kill Americans...in Gaza; on our military bases; and probably on American soil in the future. And Lloyd Austin, the dim-wit functionary raised to secretary level because of his melanin content is too stupid and too invested in "equity" and DEI to care much about defending our interests in the world, starting with our servicemen!

The only correct response would have been leveling wherever these attacks are coming from, and then warning Iran -- loudly and publicly -- that any more attacks from their proxies would result in a blockade of Iranian ports and the destruction of Iranian spy vessels. And if that doesn't work, then attacks on Iranian military bases within Iran.

Iran is a bully, and our response should have been to punch it in the nose after the first attack. All we have done is shown Iran that we are indeed a paper tiger...unwilling to protect our interests, and certainly unwilling to protect our allies. Hell, we have allowed the Houthi sand fleas to attack shipping without any significant response other than using expensive missiles to shoot down some inexpensive drones and missiles. Do we really need a multinational force to deal with a 3rd world militia? How about a nice and safe (for our servicemen) bombing campaign that lasts a few days and destroys all of their military infrastructure?

But that will never happen, because Biden, Austin, and their happy band of retards are not interested in anything other than partisan politics in service of their ultimate goal of rebuilding America in Marx's image.

Our country is diminished when savages can attack us at their leisure without fear of massive retaliation. Our allies can no longer rely on us, and our enemies know that we do not back up our words with actions.

But Trump said "pussy!"
