FEATURED Biden Plans To Retaliate After Iran Backed Attack Kills 3 US Soldiers

test
The reality is that the Defense industry is a pillar of the U.S. economy and government. We invest so much into it that it's pretty much to important to let fail. The problem is you can justify propping up the military the way we do unless some fighting is being done. So we're constantly engaging in skirmishes and battles we know we can win all so that we can say we're putting the investments to good use.

I say this in all seriousness. If there was a 100% guaranteed we to create lasting world peace that popped up tomorrow, the U.S. would probably come out against it. Our leaders would give some BS reason, but the truth is that the U.S. would be fucked if world peace became the norm.
 
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.

"I do hold them responsible in that they're supplying the weapons to the people who did it," he said.

The U.S. response to the drone attack twill be carried out "over the course of several days," striking "multiple targets," a U.S. official told ABC News.


"These are going to be very deliberate targets -- deliberate strikes on facilities that enabled these attacks" on U.S. forces, the official said.

Biden is facing increasing pressure to forcefully respond to Sunday's drone attack without deepening the conflict in the Middle East.

"We are not looking for a war with Iran," National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby said at Monday's White House press briefing.

"We are not seeking a conflict with the regime in the military way," Kirby continued. "We're not looking to escalate here. This attack over the weekend was escalatory, make no mistake about it. And it requires a response."

The president vowed Sunday that the U.S. would respond, and Monday met with members of his national security team in the White House Situation Room to discuss the latest developments on the attack in Jordan near the borders with Syria and Iraq, according to the White House.


Among those in the meeting were national security adviser Jake Sullivan, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines and chief of staff Jeff Zients.

Biden is now faced with a difficult decision on how best to respond to the attack that killed the first U.S. service members since the start of the Israel-Hamas conflict, without igniting a broader conflict in the region, something the administration has been steadfastly trying to avoid for months.

The White House would not confirm or deny if direct strikes against Iran were on the table, but a senior U.S. official told ABC News that Biden has deep misgivings about retaliatory strikes on Iran itself.

"There's no easy answer here," Kirby told reporters.

"That's why the president is meeting with his national security team, weighing the options before him. He'll do that as he's done in the past in a very careful, deliberate way, so that our national security answers-- our interests are best preserved."
