Biden Says We Will Have Discussions About Iran’s Responsibility for Soldiers’ Deaths
On Sunday, three U.S. service members were killed and 34 injured in a drone attack in Jordan. It was no big secret who was behind it: Iran, the country to which President Joe Biden released $6 billion in oil money back in August in exchange for five American hostages. Oh, and Iran got five Iranians in the exchange, leading reporters to ask John Kirby, “Then why did we need to add $6 billion on top of that?” “This is the deal that we were able to strike,” Kirby responded.
The names and photos of the soldiers KIA in Jordan have been released. Their service and sacrifice will never be forgotten. Never forget.

Today was the rare day when Biden stopped to take questions from the press on his way to a campaign event.
Q: Do you hold Iran responsible for the attack?
Biden: They supply the weapons.
Q: But do you hold them directly responsible?
Biden: We will have those discussions
Q: What do you say to those in your party worried about escalation ?

“We will have those discussions?” What the heck have you been doing for the last 48 hours? https://t.co/VQy3QRiAhK

It’s a classic Democrat saying which means “I’m waiting until there is consensus on the socially approved groupthink opinion”

Honestly, they already had the discussions. He just forgot about them.

I’m sure Obama is coming up with something. Joe will let us know as soon as he’s given the orders.

He doesn’t want to acknowledge that he paid for these attacks

Boy, he’s right on top of it🤪

On the one hand, I can understand him not wanting to make any plans public (counter-strike or assassination).
On the other hand, I seriously doubt he has any plans at all and is just making it up as he goes.
Very scary times.

Meaning they haven’t told him what to think yet.

You and Obama and Kerry funded Iran.

They’ll do anything to preserve the Iran deal they negotiated.
He really inspires confidence. Sarcasm.
