Gold Member BOHICA Posted February 26, 2021 Gold Member Share Posted February 26, 2021 (edited) I think the most fun bomb Trump did was when he blew the shit out of that Iranian general.... the response was even more comical as Iran taking down a passenger jet full of iranians in response. Bidens response of attacking Syria for Iran attacking some UN troops in Iraq is as comical as Iran’s response to the general Edited February 26, 2021 by BOHICA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iran has short range nukes and has had them for years. The treaty kept them from expanding and building long range ballistics like NK has accomplished.

XCR1250 Posted February 26, 2021 Share Posted February 26, 2021 Oops! NPR Updated at 5:42 p.m. ET Some Democratic lawmakers on Friday sought justification from the Biden administration for Thursday's airstrikes in Syria, marking the first significant test of President Biden's military approach. "The American people deserve to hear the Administration's rationale for these strikes and its legal justification for acting without coming to Congress," Virginia Sen. Tim Kaine said in a statement. "Offensive military action without congressional approval is not constitutional absent extraordinary circumstances. Congress must be fully briefed on this matter expeditiously." The airstrikes, which targeted Iranian-backed militia groups in Eastern Syria, came in response to recent attacks and threats against Americans and coalition personnel in Iraq, the Department of Defense said. NATIONAL U.S. Launches Military Airstrikes Against Iranian-Backed Militants In Syria Biden, traveling in Texas, was asked Friday what message he intended to send Iran through the airstrikes. He answered, "You can't act with impunity." White House spokeswoman Jen Psaki spoke earlier in the day in more detail about the matter, telling reporters traveling on Air Force One that the "president is sending an unambiguous message that he's going to act to protect Americans, and when threats are posed, he has the right to take an action at the time, and in the manner of his choosing." "He also is going to take those actions in a manner that's deliberative, and that has the objective of deescalating activity in both Syria and Iraq," she said. Psaki said the Department of Defense had briefed congressional leadership before the action last night. She said there would be a full classified briefing early next week at the latest. But some Democrats questioned the legality of the military response, raising a longstanding debate over presidential and congressional authority over military action. MIDDLE EAST Explosion Damages Israeli-Owned Ship In Gulf Of Oman Independent Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont warned against the president overreaching in his powers to declare military actions. "While the President has a responsibility to defend the people of the United States, our Constitution is clear that it is the Congress, not the President, who has the authority to declare war," he said in a statement. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California made a similar argument: "We cannot stand up for Congressional authorization before military strikes only when there is a Republican President," he said. "The Administration should have sought Congressional authorization here. We need to work to extricate from the Middle East, not escalate." Psaki, the White House spokeswoman, said that the administration had conducted a legal review before conducting the strikes. "As a matter of international law, the United States acted pursuant to its right to self-defense as reflected in Article 50-1 of the UN Charter. The strikes were both necessary to address the threat and proportionate to the prior attacks," Psaki said. POLITICS Biden Takes His 'America Is Back' Message To The World In Munich Speech Pentagon spokesman John Kirby also stressed to reporters that the strike fell within the president's authority under the Constitution and the U.N. Charter, calling it "deliberate and proportionate." "I think President Biden has been nothing but clear, as [Defense Secretary Lloyd] Austin has been nothing but clear that we — that we know we want to end these quote unquote 'forever wars,' " he added. On the question of casualties, Kirby said an assessment was ongoing. The Iranian-backed militant group that was targeted said one of its fighters was killed; a U.S. official told NPR's Tom Bowman three to four people may have been killed but that the review isn't final. In 2017, just a few months into then-President Trump's administration, he too delivered a retaliatory airstrike on militants in Syria. At the time, the move prompted calls by Democrats, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, for immediate debate over congressional authority for any future military action.

The saudis and AE and Qatar want that access and so do the Russians and Iranians. So we are helping the muslims try to steal it with the help of ISIS and Al Quieda and the Russians and Iranians are trying to help Assad keep it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
