Sen Shaheen: US Airstrikes In Iraq And Syria Were 'Appropriate'

  1. Oh well, if this lady says those humans needed to get blown up, I guess it must be so. I won’t even question it, I’ll just follow along and nod my head. Glad that after 1000’s of years of killing each other, we are finally figuring out that we can achieve peace by just blowing up some more humans. Glad we got that settled.

    1. Cynical but true. According to the Indian _Mahabharata_ and the Greek _Sibylline Oracles,_ there was a specific point in time when warfare came into existence. It had to do with which of the three major powers in the world would rule the entire world. Sound familiar?

    2. On top of that the only reason the liberal media is siding with the bombings is cuz their favorite president, Biden, is in office. You can bet that if this exact same thing happened under Trump, MSNBC would cover nonstop how Trump killed innocent civilians and violated the sovereignty of independent nations.

  2. The Syrian people choose Assad and the US is in Syria to take from Syria and aid Israels land grab.

  3. “defensive” attacks against the inhabitants of a country who don’t want us there in the first place. Right, Joe. John Kennedy didn’t put up with this nonsense and that’s why they murdered him.

    1. Biden’s fraudulent presidency sending America back to UFO’S mass shootings airstrikes and high priced gasoline 😳

    2. @Timmy Truth and all the people that voted for him won’t do anything about it but blame someone else.

  4. I just dont buy it.

    Asking a person that hasnt been briefed shouldnt be interviewed. Its basic journalism.

    Come on media get your stuff together.

  5. “Defensive action in response to drone attacks against American personnel and equipment.”
    So Iranian backed militias attacked us with drones? I’d like to know more details about that please.

    1. Same here I would like to know why they attacked us in the first place. Overall the drone strike the US sent out was appropriate to protect our Americans.

  6. Unmanned drones can’t be equated to human life, we’re occupying their airspace and drone striking their territories wtf is this. Not committing warcrimes shouldn’t be this hard, It’s sad to see a member of congress (who should have been consulted before committing said warcrimes) is so pro-war to say we we’re acting in defense.

  7. Iraq: “Should we bomb the Americans?”
    Syria: “Nah, their inept leadership in Florida is doing more than enough.”
    Iraq: “Cool cool.”

  8. Donald Trump was one of the few Presidents not to get the US embroiled in a new war.

    The Obama-Biden administration bombed more countries than any other administration since WW2.

    1. Conservatibe Interrupted and under trump we bombed Syria, assassinated Generals. Biden has NOT gotten us into any NEW war.

    2. Trump dumped more bombs in the first 4 years then Obama did in his first 4. He also killed the #2 Leader of Iran in Iraqi soil this myth of Trump being a peaceful President is laughable.

    3. @MuscleboundKage republicans and democrats hate each other but when it comes to war they come together why?

  9. When a president is failing miserably, war is up next. Just like Bush Sr & Jr. Failure gaslighting 101

  10. «The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which GOD gave unto Him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:
    Who bare record of the word of GOD, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.
    Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written therein: for the time is at hand.»

    [Revelation Chapter 1:1-3]

    Jakub.

  11. Any Democrat have the strength to admit how this directly goes against what Bidens plans for Iran have been?

    1. J Groovy – Biden has been talking about remaking the Iran nuclear agreement since he got elected.
      Clearly, the DC establishment knows better.
      These new attacks are not going to make things easier to make an agreement I would think.
