Today U.S. officials announced in concert together that they will be launching retaliatory strikes in the Middle East, after a series of drone strikes killed three soldiers in northern Jordan. As with everything else since the onset of the Israel-Hamas in October, the U.S. has continually blamed Iran for escalating tensions and it is no different now.
U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) issued a brief statement of the attack:
On Jan. 28, three U.S. service members were killed, and multiple personnel were injured from a one-way attack UAS that impacted on a base in northeast Jordan, near the Syrian border. As an update to the earlier announcement, the number of U.S. personnel with injuries has increased to at least 34 service members, but we expect this number to fluctuate as service members continue to seek follow-on care. Eight personnel that received injuries required evacuation from Jordan to higher level care, but they are in stable condition. All other service members are being fully evaluated for follow-on care.
The attack occurred at the logistics support base located at Tower 22 of the Jordanian Defense Network. There are approximately 350 U.S. Army and Air Force personnel deployed to the base, conducting a number of key support functions, including support to the coalition for the lasting defeat of ISIS.
As a matter of respect for the families and in accordance with DoD policy, the identities of the service members will be withheld until 24 hours after their next of kin have been notified. U.S. Central Command will continue to provide updates as they become available.
In brief statement, President Joe Biden commented on the attacks and offered condolences. He said:
Today, America’s heart is heavy. Last night, three U.S. service members were killed—and many wounded—during an unmanned aerial drone attack on our forces stationed in northeast Jordan near the Syria border. While we are still gathering the facts of this attack, we know it was carried out by radical Iran-backed militant groups operating in Syria and Iraq.
Jill and I join the families and friends of our fallen—and Americans across the country—in grieving the loss of these warriors in this despicable and wholly unjust attack. These service members embodied the very best of our nation: Unwavering in their bravery. Unflinching in their duty. Unbending in their commitment to our country— risking their own safety for the safety of their fellow Americans, and our allies and partners with whom we stand in the fight against terrorism. It is a fight we will not cease.
The three American service members we lost were patriots in the highest sense. And their ultimate sacrifice will never be forgotten by our nation. Together, we will keep the sacred obligation we bear to their families. We will strive to be worthy of their honor and valor. We will carry on their commitment to fight terrorism. And have no doubt — we will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing.
Furthermore, during a political meeting today in South Carolina, Biden said that the U.S. would retaliate.
And one last thing. I — I want to point out that we had a tough day last night in — in the Middle East. We lost three brave souls in an attack on one of our bases. And I’d ask you for a moment of silence for all three of those fallen soldiers.
(A moment of silence is observed.) And we shall respond.
On top of this Pentagon Spokesperson Lloyd Austin also issued a stern warning, that the U.S. will be responding accordingly, attributing the attacks to Iran.
Iran-backed militias are responsible for these continued attacks on U.S. forces, and we will respond at a time and place of our choosing.
The President and I will not tolerate attacks on American forces, and we will take all necessary actions to defend the United States, our troops, and our interests.
He said
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
In a surprise to no one who has been paying attention to the statements and actions by the DoD since the war in Israel broke out, that this conflict would be used as a proxy to further exacerbate and expand war in the Middle East; and this is yet another example of it, continuously blaming Iran with no burden of proof ever offered.
The buildup for a huge false flag is growing by the day that will thrust the whole world into a global conflict, with the proliferation of the Ukraine-Russia thing and eventually with China-Taiwan, too.
[7] And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. [8] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows. Mark 13:7-8
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

Oh, spare me – (p)Resident O’Biden acts as though the loss of three warrants a response, but the culling (killing) of those by the slab jab don’t?
ANY loss of life is tragic, to be sure – but O’Biden is a serial killer. That includes the lost military souls because if he weren’t such a warmonger, they wouldn’t have been where they were to begin with!
Joe Biden is a retarded fool who’s as fit to be president as I am to fly a fighter jet – or any aircraft for that matter. Not to mention, he’s a super evil Roman Catholic and a pervert predator!
Obama and of course the pope are Joe Biden’s puppet masters, they’re the ones pulling his strings.
Hmm іt ɑppears like your website ate my first comment (it ᴡas super long) so I
guess I’ll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I’m thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I too am an aspiring blog writer but I’m still new to the whole thing.
Dо you have any suggestions for first-time blog writers? I’d definitｅly appｒeсiɑte
it.
Did bi-dung actually say….”“And have no doubt — we will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing,” Biden stated.”….OR was it more like ..
“Wezabbb..gobbl deicecreem,awiddlegirls.andSniffddd”?
This perverted evil braindead man needs to be in a nursing home (Preferably in a federal penitentiary)
Watching this “presidency” play out is like being tied to a chair while a toddler plays with a loaded pistol.
Obadiah should always be consulted & kept in mind where Jordan is concerned. Jordan holds U.N. oversight over the so-called ‘Temple Mount’, Fort Antonia for Rome, & isn’t alien to end time scripture. Neither Iran/Persia.

With regard to Persia, Purim, these wars & latter days prophecy, I just read some CRAZY stuff about the book of Esther & the hanging of the ten sons of Haman, linking it with the post-WWII hanging of the ten men most responsible for the ‘final solution’. Apparently all the SS were learned in Hebrew & occultism, & at least one of them made the connection to Esther & the failure of their program, crying out as he died: Purim-fest 1946. One Julius (interesting name) Streicher.
–
It’s interesting how Herman Goering who was the mastermind of the final solution plot died before the hangings by suicide , & there was another man in the plot (making 12) who was tried in absentia leaving the ten to hang. Herman/Haman…..read the related chapter in Esther & it’s crazy.
–
Almost as crazy as her Persian king& husband who was crazy as a bedbug: or a modern liberal (lol): he ordered the sea at the Hellespont to be lashed with whips when his pontoon invasion of Greece was destroyed by a storm, & had every man involved in its building beheaded. I’m sure that fixed everything…& helped morale…
–
These self-centered, self-exalting antichrist types & their infatuation with beheading…
–
I still have research to do on what ‘ancient Hebrew’ they refer to, but the infamous Leningrad does NOT have the identifying marks, which points to the painstakingly correct Masoretic underlying the King James Bible, and we don’t really ‘need’ such evidence since our King James Bible & its typology is inbuilt & cross-referencing, precept upon precept, line upon line….comparing spiritual things with spiritual we have more than sufficient to see the connecting typology.
–
No doubt, this will link also in some way to the ten kings of Revelation in the time of Jacob’s trouble, & the Lord’s judgment with the Jews involved. I mention these things so that the brethren can investigate for themselves.
Just like we thought all along. Bidenflation and Obamanation want to start a war so there will be no election, so they’re ramping it up towards November so we can get stuck with this idiot even longer, when we’re already counting the days, minutes, seconds till we can get rid of him and not have to hear his alphabet soup speeches anymore or his VP’s jello salad about the yellow school bus. Better yet, let’s get outta here before the election comes around. Come quickly, Lord Jesus and take us out of this mess of a world (my capital J doesn’t work for some odd reason).
