US President Joe Biden has condemned Iranian attacks on military facilities in Israel, pledging a coordinated Group of Seven (G7) diplomatic response while highlighting the United States’s help in taking down “nearly all” of the attacking drones and missiles.
Biden, who cut short a trip to Delaware and returned to Washington, DC to meet advisers over the late Saturday night attack, said in a statement released by the White House that the US forces and facilities had not been hit.
The US president said he reiterated the “ironclad” support for Israel’s security in a call with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, with whom he has had strained relations over Israel’s handling of the war in Gaza.
“Tomorrow, I will convene my fellow G7 leaders to coordinate a united diplomatic response to Iran’s brazen attack,” he said.
“And while we have not seen attacks on our forces or facilities today, we will remain vigilant to all threats and will not hesitate to take all necessary action to protect our people,” he said.
Just an FYI, First/Second Thought is a verified Tankie. It doesn’t mean everything he says is inaccurate, but he only opposes Western imperialism. He’s a rich white dude living in Texas who minimizes the evils of empires that his audience is ignorant of. He opposes Israel’s genocide for the same reason China and Russia oppose it. It’s only a tool to bash one empire over another.
Found the Nazi
He opposes genocide? And that’s a bad thing why?
