The Hill: Biden orders strikes on Iranian group in Iraq after 3 US service members wounded 

President Biden ordered strikes on three locations in Iraq after three U.S. service members were wounded, one critically, in an attack early Christmas morning credited to a militia group backed by Iran. 

In a statement Monday, National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said Biden directed the strikes against three facilities used by Kataib Hezbollah and affiliated groups, which claimed credit for the initial attack against U.S. personnel. 

The groups, the U.S. said, are all connected to Iran. 

The attack was carried out by a one-way attack drone, according to the statement, which said the three locations were “focused specifically on unmanned aerial drone activities.” 

The statement said Biden ordered the retaliatory strikes after learning of the attack that wounded the U.S. service members.

  6. Yes mr fair and balanced at 934 the self loathing white boy with purple hair. Chuds and crackers for all. Don't wish him a merry Christmas because he is probably a self hating atheist as well.

    But sad to say, we are duty bound...

    Merry Christmas Mr fair and balanced and May the Light and love of Jesus Christ be upon you and your family.
