The media likes to pretend that former President Trump’s decision to take out Iran’s terror strongman was some random warmongering, but there was a very clear chain of events that led to the Soleimani hit.
Kataib Hezbollah terrorists, trained and funded by Soleimani’s Quds force, attacked the US embassy in Baghdad. After trying to set it on fire, they sprayed the message, “Soleimani is our leader” on the walls.
Abu Mahdi al-Muhandis, the head of Kataib Hezbollah, who had been at the scene of the attack, then headed to meet up with Soleimani. That’s when the US took out Soleimani, Munhandis and a number of Iran’s IRGC and Iraqi PMF terrorists in a precision strike.
We’ve been hearing from Kataib Hezbollah, a Shiite Iranian-backed Islamic militia, again lately.
President Biden ordered strikes on three locations in Iraq after three U.S. service members were wounded, one critically, in an attack on Erbil Air Base early Christmas morning credited to a militia group backed by Iran.
In a statement Monday, National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said Biden directed the strikes against three facilities used by Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups, which claimed credit for the initial attack against U.S. personnel.
Trump responded to attacks by going after top figures in the terror food chain including Soleimani who was the guy behind all this.
Biden however keeps launching Clinton-style limited strikes which just keep this going without doing any serious damage.
Thanks Daniel, good analysis.
O”bi Dung doesn’t want to hurt his co-religionists so Israel took out Sayyed Mousavi top IRGC terrorist in Syria.
Israel needs to stop pussyfooting in Gaza and sacrificing precious young lives, just reduce it to rubble. We have seen the weapons caches and the tunnels: now complete the job.
I keep thinking that a lot of this would not even be happening if we would just drill our own d_mn oil, which we have in abundance, apparently.
This policy of tit-for-tat pin pricks is typical of Democrats, is tolerable to groups such as this flavor of Hizbollah, demonstrates U.S. weakness, and only ensures more strikes. Eventually, whether in Iraq or the Red Sea, one will get through and do some real damage. Biden and his maladministration are weak, weak, weak. And it’s not like other actors don’t notice it.
“The Hill” is one of those publications which pretend Alzheimer Joe actually gives orders besides “protect Crack Hunter at all costs.” The stink of his handlers is all over this superficial sop to a soporific public.
When I was a kid American companies owned all the oil producing facilities in that area. Then the muslims stole them from us.
