Popular Post CharlieH Posted November 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted November 10, 2023 American troops were hit four times by Iranian-backed groups in the Middle East after a U.S. strike Wednesday on an Iranian facility in Syria. Pentagon deputy press secretary Sabrina Singh said Thursday the U.S. has now been attacked 46 times since Oct. 17, following the breakout of a major war between Israel and Palestinian militant group Hamas. That includes 24 attacks in Iraq and 22 in Syria, Singh said. The attacks have all involved explosive drones and rockets. “If these attacks continue against our personnel, we won’t hesitate at a time and place of our choosing to respond again,” Singh told reporters at a briefing. A total of 56 troops have been injured in the attacks, but most are minor injuries and every service member has since returned to duty, according to the Pentagon. The latest attacks follow a U.S. airstrike Wednesday, which took out a major weapons facility in Syria used by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps and Iranian-backed militants. Singh said the strike inflicted significant damage on the storage facility. “We were able to render that building pretty much non-usable,” she said.

Sooooo, carry out an attack on an enemy then complain when they strike back. I wasn't aware that the US was run by people that have no understanding of how such things happen, and think they are the only ones allowed to attack other people, but shock and horror, was it planned to elicit an armed response as an excuse to go full on destruction. 18 hours ago, CharlieH said: “If these attacks continue against our personnel, we won’t hesitate at a time and place of our choosing to respond again,” Singh told reporters at a briefing. Looks like Joe will be able to get his very own war after all. Just needs a few more attacks to get the enemy riled up enough to be able to say the war is justified. I don't need to wonder any more why they needed 2 aircraft carriers for a conflict where the "enemy" doesn't have an air force. 1 2 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s just take a look at your point of view for a sec,do you think America should abandon its Allie’s when a terrorist group murders 1,500 of its citizens?really?for real?and yup we did send 2 carrier groups to protect Israel’s flanks if she is attacked by another nation sorry dude but really??do you seriously think we should ignore attacks on our troops really?and then you get your undys in a knot when you get called out on such spurious insults to another nation………wow Edited November 10, 2023 by Tug 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
