...I'll explain why in a moment.

ARTICLE:
***A senior U.S. defense official told Fox News that at least 6 Iranian proxy fighters were killed in the U.S.'s attacks on Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stations in the Middle East Sunday.

The IRGC stations are located in the Syrian cities of Abu Kamal and Mayadin, according to Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin. A safe house and training facility were hit on Sunday evening.***

ME:
WOW, this administration surely is continuing to go to EXTREME length to tiptoe - verbal & kinetic - around Iran.

Um... "6 Iranian proxy fighters" were killed on an attack ON the IRGC? The IRGC is NOT an Iranian proxy, they are an official military branch of Iran. Saying we OFFED 6 IRGC force members would be rather controversial to these NEH'S in the WH... & ouchie to Iran.

Creates a question among the pple who recognize the difference - Iran leaders:
So... did US kill 6 proxy fighters that were WITH the IRGC or 6 IRGC force members?

ARTICLE:
***Austin said that the airstrikes were "in response to continued attacks against U.S. personnel in Iraq and Syria."

"The President has no higher priority than the safety of U.S. personnel, and he directed today’s action to make clear that the United States will defend itself, its personnel, and its interests," Austin's statement read.***

ME:
We have ONLY responded to targets in Syria... for attacks on our military in both countries.

Why?

Probably because...
The Iraq Govt is as shaky as Biden's brain & will fall quickly if we did. It would become another Afghanistan situation, likely cause us to deploy more troops there & get into a ground war. So the troops in Iraq (Syria too basically) are sitting ducks.

I hate this administration with a passion.

Domestic policies to Military policies to GEO politics... this entire administration is absolutely weak & incompetent to the point of it being a disability.
