As of approximately 8 hours after the bombing of Syria, there is no statement from the White House on their official website [SEE HERE] or from the JoeBama spokespeople.
The cognitively disconnected pretend president is being cited for authorizing the bombing.
However, there’s just as much reason to believe he thought he was ordering more jello pudding before nap-time.
The preferred narrative term “Iran-backed” is also so disengenous it is quite silly.
WASHINGTON – The US on Thursday launched an airstrike in Syria that targeted facilities used by Iran-backed militia groups — the first military action taken by the Biden administration, officials said.
The Pentagon said the strike was in retaliation for a Feb. 15 rocket attack against a US military base at Erbil International Airport in Northern Iraq that killed a US-led coalition contractor and left others wounded, including an American service member.
“I’m confident in the target that we went after, we know what we hit,” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin told reporters after the airstrike.
“We’re confident that that target was being used by the same Shia militants that conducted the [Feb. 15] strikes,” he said.
Pentagon spokesman John Kirby said the attack “destroyed multiple facilities at a border control point used by a number of Iranian- backed militant groups.”
The groups included Kataib Hezbollah and Kataib Sayyid al-Shuhada, according to Kirby.
Kirby called the retaliation a “proportionate military response.” (read more)
….And that was the problem for the Pentagon. President Trump was undoing the industrial war machine; and there are trillions at stake on that policy issue alone. Now the war machinery is back to operating without civilian oversight and paying the politicians to just shut up and sit down.
It will be interesting to see how the JoeBama administration handles the questions tomorrow about the bombing of a sovereign Syria; considering their prior 2017 position below:
“Where’s Waldo?”
The conspiracy theory boys who claim that Biden is using Castle Rock Studio’s bogus WH set for his news vids is starting to get some legs.
I can’t imagine what your angle is here. You say “conspiracy theory” as if to say something negative about someone or some category of people who have absolutely nothing to do with this story. It was “conspiracy theory” that the Trump campaign and the Trump administration were spied on and encumbered by fake investigations. It was conspiracy theory until the facts came out much, much later and it all turned out to be very, very correct.
Consider checking your hate and bias. It seems to be distracting you from the actual story here. Yes, this is the first military action but it was fully predicted here and elsewhere. I just don’t know what you’re trying to say by bringing in people who are completely irrelevant and casting your hate or anger or frustration on these nameless and faceless people? From a psychological standpoint, many people attempt to elevate their own sense of self-esteem by asserting that someone else is bad in some way. It’s classical but it makes far less sense when the people brought up are completely not relevant to the discussion.
Self-awareness begins when you notice the effect you have on people. Just a suggestion that you should start to notice.
You are completely misunderstanding what John is talking about.
daniel … do you knows what is CASTLE ROCK STUDIO ????……I bet 1/2 of the CTH readers do not know…..
I forgot about Castle Rock Studios!!!
Thanks for mentioning it John and Sejmon
I’m not so interested in the Jell-o jabs, we ought to be adults, But, since we heard of Trump challenging his military/diplomatic/industrial advisors pleading for military action, no surprise Biden goes along with what he had known for 40 years. Of course he agreed to retaliate. It’s not just a neocon method, it’s the State at work. What else are they gonna do, whine?
I actually enjoy the “Jell-O jabs.”
#Me Too
Be careful, that may be code. You may have just ordered another air strike?
Endless wars. We are in 1984 – War is peace. Must have troops all over the world to maintain the “peace”. Keeps the military industrial complex well fed, who in turn feed the politicians with campaign contributions, and support of their charitable foundations (think Clintons), and cushy jobs and money (think Bidens) for the friends and family program. You would think by now the masses would understand what is going on, but they are promised covid relief money, which will end up having very little to do with covid relief. Sickening.
Not just Democrats like Clinton and Biden. War mongering Republicans like Bolton, Cheney, and Graham.
Foolish to talk about party loyalty issues as there is only one club and We the People ain’t in it.
Exactly! I’d like to put their asses in the front lines and see just how long it would last
Dare I say it… I’m far from racist, but our new armed forces puppet-in-charge has already shown signs of doing what would have been unthinkable a generation ago: putting white patriotic troops on the front lines and as Obama did with a Navy Seal team, setting them up…
The notion that such thoughts are plausible in today’s America is sickening and repugnant.
Watch and pray.
All combat arms troops regardless of melanin content should be subject to being on the front lines.
Agreed. If you peeled back the onion I suspect you would find many of the entrenched Republicans deep in the political influence peddling war machine. But who would ever investigate and expose it?
Trump ended a LOT of the way things were run in this country and in the world. He changed expectations and standards while most people never took notice at all. He brought truly meaningful peace to the middle east. He kept campaign promises!
The establishment politicians and deep state don’t seem to realize that now people are noticing with clarity and are actually concerned about what it is they have been doing.
The more they try to undo “Trump” the worse it will become for them.
“The more they try to undo “Trump” the worse it will become for them.”
Excellent … demonRAT & RINO failure is a guarantee … and will strengthen all things Trump.
I fondly recall the days when we’d all got a ‘memo’ tweeted directly from Trump re: actions taken by USAF, hours before we’d hear the enemedia’s narrative.
True – but until patriotic Americans have assured that we can once again have valid elections, our concerns or our majority won’t count for much.
I’m beginning to lean toward Balkanization of the United States as a viable option. That is, reorganize the states into different national divisions with different constitutions and forms of government.
Could take years, but possibly a better solution than trying to save all of it in one piece, given the ideological breakdowns that tend to follow certain geographic lines.
We are the hippies now
“Kirby called the retaliation a “proportionate military response.””
Sounds like a retread of McNamara’s failed “meet each hostile action with a proportional reaction” policy in Vietnam.
As to who ordered the strike. Maybe it was Joe’s caretaker, Dr. Jill Medicine Woman.
“Dr. Jill Medicine Woman.” This I love!
I personally have no problem sticking a missile up some jihadi’s backside. I had no problem when President Trump did it.
I trusted President Trump’s judgement and promise that he was not going to start any more wars and these types of action were keeping the bastards heads down.
This reeks of a Clinton Aspirin Factory event. Smoke and mirrors to make Sheriff Joe look tough by takin’ the jihadis behind the barn, so to speak.
Jen Psaki is a phony.
Trump is my President.
Epstein still didn’t kill himself.
And Bill Barr is a POS.
Hopefully they will bomb the slave ports of Somalia next.
If you are going after Slave ports then Mali should make that list.
Someday the people we used to call liberals will maybe wake up to see they are supporting an evil war machine that kills for money and power for the elites without offering a shred of protection for We the People.
Sadly my family members are those you mention. They dutifully read the NY Times one of the worst propaganda machines out there. I told them, you were lied to for four years about Russia, Russia, Russia and yet you still read their propaganda. They still think Biden is going to save us from the last four years! They can no longer be reasoned with.
yup, no waking those people. They have been brain dead for years and they are clearly past the alotted time allowed for resecitation. All have a do not recisitate necklace, which they wear around there ankle? IDK, they have no common sense. Some may have Hi IQ’s, but still stuck on STUPID!
This is beyond pathetic! A diapered, mentally deficient, pathological liar still pretending to be the legitimately elected leader of the free world. What a sham. EVERYBODY KNOWS, DEMENTIA JOE!
Does Biden have a double?? Look at the earlobes and the face.
What do you think??
I believe his brother may have doubled for him before. He look alot like a younger version of Joe in a mask. Knowing this family Jill might like the idea.
I remember a “circled” campaign event in some outdoor ampitheater Biden runs down a set of Stone? steps and half turns waving as he jogs to the stage and scampers up them. I have looked all over for that video if anyone has it please share.
glad ..you notice that…check carefully his face in 2015 and 2021 ….it is not original shot gun joe b…..
Don’t forget TRAITOR to the American people.
At least Joe Sock Puppet didn’t send mean tweets to Assad and hurt his feelings, so it’s all good, right Jen?
Very quietly, the “Chief-Executive” of our Republic has been replaced by a classic Regency.
Yes … a Soros Committee of Evil.
there are a lot of folk making political hay out of this.
but why not trust the military on the ground?
as far as I know they still have local operational command.
but then again
maybe jobama thinks he’s playing mario
The American miltary is supposed to be run by the elected government, which is supposed to be aligned with the will of the American people. We get to have our say, and we should never just trust the military to do what they think is right.
It would be a bad precedent to have our military in Syria, for instance, in its own authority bombing targets there as retaliation for Iranian strikes against U.S. targets in Iraq. We’ve never had a military in this country with quite that degree of independence, and we never should.
btw…we are not in the Syria on invitation of Syrian government…de facto illegally ..this is reason why PDJT WANTED GO OUT SOON AS HE A VVP RID OFF JIHADISTS…….
“The US on Thursday launched airstrikes…” maybe/maybe not. The Ministry of Truth at it again. My thought is that no one here on this board, including Sundance, has any first hand evidence on any airstrike or whatever.
After years of indoctrination I now make certain of any truth. If told Roxy is in the house I locate her and solicit a purr. I can see the side of our barn but now go all the way around it looking, touching to make sure it has four sides, a roof and a floor.
The big lie, the little lie whatever it is all lies now unless I KNOW with first hand experience. And, frankly, I no longer care about syria or and other chit hole like washington dc
What I experienced first hand before January 20, 2021 has now gone away. All the aircraft all the strange stuff out over the ocean the missile launch I know what I saw and recorded it in my journal.
I remember when a POTUS had dinner with the Chinese Leader at his own Club and bombed Syrian military targets.
All explained the next day.
We have some in-laws coming into town next week. They are ultra-libs. I generally avoid politics around them because they’re obnoxious about it. But, if they decide to go there, should I lead with:
I may re-enact the US Capitol riots by knocking a pillow off the couch, spilling some water, and singing God Bless the USA.

USA is no longer energy independent, but now at the mercy of nations that hate us.
No borders / no sovereign nation.
Ask them how they feel about funding FREE SHIT for at least 30 MILLION ILLEGAL ALIENS at the expense of their children’s and grandchildren’s future well-being and prosperity.
Being the libtards they they are, they’ll probably be happy to see the 2A legislatively and unlawfully slaughtered, which of course is followed by actual slaughter if history is telling.
Ask them to explain the IMPOSSIBLE 3 AM vote count bump in those swing states and make the PROVE to you that the actual evidence of actual voting fraud was ever reviewed in a court.
All that free stuff for at least 30 million illegal border buster aliens is just authentic “white supremacy” in action–Kiplingesque style.
Lead with war in Syria and swiftly go through the next three. Then walk out of the room.
*Joe Biden voted for the Iraq War,Joe Biden supported Obama firing 130 Cruise Missles into Libya, then Joe Biden did and said nothing when ISIS waged its Caliphate in the middle east, now Joe Biden is Bombing Syria.
I like the re-enactment myself. I have used the others, unfortunately the reaction I got was Where did you here that?
I vote for All of the Above.
Will the enemedia ever long for another Trump Tweetstorm like I do?
“
It will be interesting to see how the JoeBama administration handles the questions tomorrow about the bombing of a sovereign Syria”
I think even Sundance doesn’t realize we aren’t living in America anymore.
He doesn’t have to explain anything.
Nothing is reported. Real news is censored. They can do whatever they want and pay no penalty.
It won’t be interesting. There are no repercussions. There won’t be. Even in the outside chance the other wing of the UniParty wins in 2022 they will just support the Deep State.
This is no longer America.
Who exactly is in charge of our government?
Maybe Xi
Xi is not even in charge of China. There are bigger communists in the shadows pulling the strings
The CIA. But who’s in charge of the CIA?
CFR. Chatham House, Federal Reserve, Vatican and the bank of England
Clowns

But liberals can take solace that Biden’s bombing of brown people took place under the cover of diversity with new Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, a black former Raytheon lobbyist calling the shots at the Pentagon.
Gordon Chang: Biden did approves financing China’s military. On Jan. 26, the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control issued a license permitting Americans to continue acquiring shares in certain companies associated with “Communist Chinese Military Companies,” known as CCMCs, until May 27.
This sounds to me like the beginning of a set-up.
The obvious conclusion: war economy to shore up an otherwise free-falling economy.
Another: Blame Joe when the time is right, let him explain it on open mic, and then 25th him. By then all of the odious socialist agenda exec. orders shall have been signed, the nation-breaking provisions of the covid bill shall have been passed, and Kamala shall have been posed to ride in as the restorer of all things wonderful – sounding like the moderate she was painted as during the Biden campaign.
We know better.
Watch and pray.
The media says ‘Biden did/ordered/declared/planned/etc’ when in reality, he doesn’t do a damned thing, knows nothing, and walks around with his eyes glazed over. Seems everyone has a free hand in the DC hellhole.
DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO? How can we hold these LIARS accountable for their actions when the rinos do the same. We need a new American First Party any else is a waste of time.
The Left/Democrats/news media will not criticize this.
We’ve broken through into Mussolini’s paradigm of fascism – “Nothing outside the State, nothing against the State”.
Any Democrat or leftist who now criticizes this will be the one attacked. The next stage of totalitarianism will come soon. Critics, dissenters or just harmless gadflies will be purged. They will eat their own.
I wonder if they got warning that bombs were on their way. Just a hunch…?
Concocting “wars” to justify VARIOUS procurement that will make the military industrial complex happy. What’s next for the free-reigned kleptomaniacs?
#ImpeachBiden
The only war that will be justified is with China CCP. Unfortunately, this attack may be prodded by China.
Our country is being run by a cabal of Biden’s minions hand-picked by Barry Soetoro.
Joe has nothing to do with it.
Kabbalah
For those that think Joey B as President, be aware there are worse people coming. Be aware there will be very little free speech. Batten down the hatches. You were warned and told many times.
This is how I think it is happening. Great video
https://rumble.com/embed/v8us3v/?pub=4
Jen Paski may have ordered the strike herself. There is no clear example who exactly is in charge of our America. My Mother had Alzheimer’s for ten years. They told us she’d be dead in three years & I don’t think *anyone* loves Joe. They love themselves too much. Faith Hope and Trust on any level are back in the swamp. MAGA
Riddle me this: When a US-led coalition contractor gets whacked it’s No Big Deal, but when an American service member gets whacked it IS a Big Deal?
