Biden can stall until the next president - hopefully a Republican - replaces him and then, with squinted eyes and clenched teeth, condemns anything he, or she- does as cowardly. TD
I am anything but a warmonger. But this isn’t Ukraine. We are talking about repeated direct attacks on American troops. 28 and counting. No other American president, with the exception of Obama, would have been so unconcerned with attacks such as these. (But, what do we expect after the Afghanistan debacle?) Every other one of them, from George Washington to Donald Trump, would have retaliated in one substantive way or another. Though that likely wouldn’t have been necessary, as Iran would have known that, so the attacks probably wouldn’t have occurred in the first place. Does the Biden administration have a bizarre case of Stockholm Syndrome?
Teddy Roosevelt admonished us to “speak softly and carry a big stick.” The Biden administration often yammers on loudly…but can’t even find its twig."
. . ."We’ve been clear. The president’s been clear-- and I have been clear right here-- that if this doesn’t stop, then we will respond. And so we maintain the right to respond. We have the capability to do that. And we will respond at a time and place of our choosing." Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin
