Biden's Frenz in Iran Direct Their Proxy Armies to Kill At Least Three American Servicemen; Deathcount Likely to Grow

The Iranian terror mullahs are our Partners in Peace (TM). That's what Obama and Val Jarrett have decided. And the decrepit idiot Joe Biden is too weak to question them.

Three U.S. service members were killed and at least 25 others were injured in a drone attack on an outpost in northeast Jordan near the Syrian border, U.S. Central Command confirmed on Sunday.

But a senior U.S. defense official told Fox News the injury toll could rise to higher than 25 Americans. Most, if not all, of those injured and killed were Army soldiers based in northern Jordan near the Syrian border at a base known as Tower 22, which has been in support of the counter-ISIS mission for year, the official said.

Some of the 25-plus injured have been medically evacuated from the base, likely to Landstuhl in Germany, according to the official. It is not clear if they were hit while sleeping in the residential compound at the base. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin is actively engaged in discussions taking place at the White House about how to respond.

...

The White House said President Biden was briefed Sunday morning by Austin, National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and Principal Deputy National Security Advisor Jon Finer about the attack, which marked a significant escalation as it's the first time U.S. troops have been killed by enemy fire in the Middle East since the Israel-Hamas war began on Oct. 7.

Yes, but they have been frequently -- nigh constantly -- fired upon and targeted by Iran's proxy terror groups, and the US media has refused to cover this, as they know it makes Biden look both impotent and foolish, given that he still thinks Iran is his Partner in Peace (TM).

The media Just Wants to Inform the Public (TM).

...

Biden blasted "radical Iran-backed militant groups" in reacting to the attack.

"Today, America's heart is heavy. Last night, three U.S. service members were killed -- and many wounded -- during an unmanned aerial drone attack on our forces stationed in northeast Jordan near the Syria border," he said. "While we are still gathering the facts of this attack, we know it was carried out by radical Iran-backed militant groups operating in Syria and Iraq."

Maybe your next care package to Iran should be $8 billion instead of $10 billion, just to show how peeved you are.

...

In the wake of the attack, Republicans condemned Biden's perceived inaction so far and some went further, accusing the president of appeasing Iran.

"Iran's proxies have launched over 150 attacks on US troops since October, as the Iran-backed Houthis attack global shipping, and Iran-backed Hezbollah and Hamas attack our ally Israel. The Biden administration's failed Middle East policy has destroyed our deterrence against adversaries in the Middle East. We need a major reset of our Middle East policy to protect our national security interests and restore deterrence," House Foreign Affairs Committee Chair Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, said.

Biden and Obama have helped to fund the Iran proxies who killed our troops.

Obama even sent them millions in cash.

What do we call that?

Holy s**t, looks like Biden's Dementia Stutter has gone viral:

Jim Hanson points out that Biden has given a lot (most?) of our precision guided munitions to Ukraine so our ability to strike Iran is compromised.

I'm curious to see what MAGA says about this. MAGA is made up of two different impulses, and sometimes the same people expressing contradictory impulses just hours apart:

First, there's the hardcore pacifist/isolationist impulse, which has hardened from a mere guidance to an absolute doctrine.

There there's the Make the Rubble Bounce contingent.

I do not know which of these doctrines is supposed to be the MAGA foreign policy. They are both advanced with vigor at different times. Trump, of course, will embrace one or the other at different times.

Trump surrogate Richard Grennell is blaming Biden for the attacks. But he's not blaming Biden for his weakness, but rather for his "war mongering:"

Richard Grenell @RichardGrenell

2 Navy Seals and 3 US soldiers have been killed in the last week because Joe Biden gave Iran billions of dollars in sanctions relief, credit and cash.

It's people like @RonFilipkowski who give Joe Biden aid and comfort in times like this by ignoring his disastrous war mongering.

I know Tucker Carlson is now claiming that unspecified "interests" in the US want a war with Iran that no one else does and will not stop until they get it.

But it sure seems to me like Iran wants a war, and that the impulse to "blame America first" is now becoming a major part of what is called "America First." (Or America Only, as some call it.) This is/was a common claim on the left, that all aggression by foreign regimes is/was always due to America pushing/manipulating the foreign attackers into it. And it now seems to be a major -- perhaps dominant -- strain of thought on the MAGA right as well.

I keep asking this: Are we now officially a pacifist party? We seem to have slouched into that position without much debate.
