President Biden finally announced the U.S. would respond to the Iranian-backed drone attack that killed three U.S. service members and injured over 30 others. But he still danced around the issue of fully blaming Iran and promising a swift military response.

ABC News reports on President Biden’s decision:

President Joe Biden said Tuesday he’s decided how the U.S. is going to respond to the drone attack on a U.S. base in Jordan by Iran-backed militants that killed three American soldiers.

“Have you made a decision how you’ll respond to the attack,” Biden was asked leaving the White House as [he] headed for fundraisers in Florida.

“Yes,” he said.

Retaliatory strikes by the U.S. so far have yet to deter any of these Iranian-backed groups in the region. Asked if this upcoming response will actually deter them, he said, “we’ll see.”

He reiterated that the U.S. is not looking for a “wider war in the Middle East,” explaining, “that’s not what I’m looking for.”

The president wouldn't go as far as saying Iran is directly responsible for the attack, but that it is responsible for arming these proxy groups.

How will the President respond to Iran? He could order a drone strike or impose economic sanctions. Unfortunately, based on the weakness the Administration has displayed so far (e.g., National Security Council Coordinator John Kirby’s pathetic response to the drone strike), we don’t know how effective President Biden’s response will be.

Regardless, any move forward is an escalation in a conflict with Iran. How will the largest state sponsor of terrorism retaliate?

Don’t forget that Secretary of State Antony Blinken just said that the Middle East has “not seen a situation as dangerous as the one we’re facing now across the region since at least 1973” (referring to the bloody Yom Kippur War in 1973 that left thousands dead). The Middle East is extremely unstable with Israel’s incursion into Gaza, the Houthi attacks, and now the Iranian drone strike.

Former Acting Director of National Intelligence Ric Grenell weighed in on President Biden’s response to Iran:

When you look at Joe Biden yesterday, who at the White House was asked, did Iran do this? Are they responsible? And he had like a hemming and hawing answer. He was not clear – he hedged. And not only did Americans see that, but the radical Islamic regime in Tehran saw that. . . . It all comes together to say this is not a very credible response. This is not a credible threat of military action. . . . Our enemies see it, and it’s just messaging more weakness.

With all that’s going on in the Middle East and a forthcoming response to Iran, could the U.S. be ushered into World War III? Our country needs strong leadership and communication to avoid this disastrous outcome. The Biden Administration must operate from a position of strength, not weakness. Otherwise, our enemies will take advantage of perceived weakness, and the world will only become more dangerous.

As we told you, the Deep State FBI has been targeting conservatives and Christians by going through their bank statements to identify purchases of Bibles and MAGA memorabilia. This is a disgusting breach of the First Amendment rights of American citizens, and the ACLJ filed a FOIA demanding answers.

The Daily Caller just reported that a Pentagon’s Special OPs office hosted two terrorism experts to discuss their book God, Guns, and Sedition: Far-Right Terrorism in America. In other words, the Deep State Department of Defense is sounding the alarm on Christians and conservatives and lumping them in with alt-right terrorists.

The last time I checked, Special Ops soldiers aren’t usually investigating domestic issues. So instead of doing more important work across the world, these soldiers are focusing on Biden’s agenda of targeting conservatives and Christians. The insanity must stop.

As the Deep State continues to target its opposition and violate their constitutional rights, the ACLJ will keep holding them accountable for their weaponization. Join our efforts to hold the Deep State accountable by signing our petition
