Iranian Drone Strike Kills American, Rocket Fire Ensues

An American contractor was just killed by an Iranian drone when it attacked a Syrian base being used by the U.S. military. This despicable drone strike injured three American soldiers as well.
And after the U.S. rightly struck back, Iranian proxies launched a second attack, firing rockets at a U.S. military base in Syria. These deadly strikes may have happened on Syrian ground, but make no mistake: These were direct attacks on America.
Iran is feeling emboldened enough to attack our troops. The IRGC is testing us. And why wouldn’t they? The entire world has watched as President Biden displays a dangerous combination of incompetence and weakness in the face of hostile nations. Russia, China, even North Korea – no one is afraid of the U.S. under the weak-kneed Biden Administration.
And, folks, Iran is terrifyingly close to having a working nuclear weapon, and that will change everything. A nuclear-capable Iran is a grave threat to the entire world. And now they’re provoking us and killing Americans in the process. This is no game.
Let’s hope that President Biden finds his resolve at some point to stand up to Iran and shut down its nuclear ambitions before it’s too late. If Iran is this emboldened by Biden’s weakness that it would allow its proxies to attack America with its weaponry, what do you think will happen if it gets its hands on a nuke? All bets are off.
Today’s full Sekulow broadcast includes more reporting on last night’s Iranian drone attacks on American troops that also killed at least one American civilian working as a military contractor. Along with Sec. Pompeo, we’re also joined by ACLJ Senior Advisor for National Security and Foreign Policy Ric Grenell, who shares his reactions to the attacks in Syria and the Biden response.
