President Joe Biden on Tuesday made it clear that he does not support an Israeli retaliatory strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities. When asked by reporters if he backed such a prospect, Biden simply replied, “The answer is no.”
The president acknowledged Israel’s right to defend itself following yesterday’s missile attack by Iran but emphasized the need for a measured response. “Israel has a right to respond, but it should do so proportionally,” Biden stated.
Biden also revealed that the U.S. will be imposing new sanctions on Iran in response to the missile attack, though he did not provide further details.
This comes a day after U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan warned that Iran would face “severe consequences” for the attack. Sullivan added that the U.S. is working closely with Israel to address the situation, though he did not elaborate on what those consequences might entail.

As this clearly brilliant gentleman relaxed on his beach chair and looked up at the beautiful sky.
Biden’s “proportionate” response is to throw a party snapper at them.
It’s about time this senile corrupt China puppet became quiet and went to a nursing home where he’s belonged for a while already.

Proportionate. Mmm. As long as they didn’t wipe you off only attempted to you can’t. Unless they did Chas veshalom then you have the right to wipe them, if you still can.Mmm

I agree with him about a proportional response. Firing 180 ballistic missiles at Tehran is a good start.
Yes of course, because proportional responses have worked wonders at stopping attacks from Hamas & Hezbollah these past few decades.
Obamas mouth price has spoken and no I will do what he needs to and that’s teach Iran a real lesson. Take out their oils production and refinery capabilities. Level their nuclear centers (?) lastly leave them
In the dark take out their electricity and communications centers.
Option 1: Bomb the nuclear plant and significantly reduce the great threat Iran poses for now and future decades.
Option 2: Respond “proportionally” and let Iran get closer to a nuclear bomb which we know they are not afraid to put to use.
Hmmmmm 🤔 Pretty tough decision…
I should hope Israel has learned its lesson by now not to listen to Biden (Kamala etc…).
The Biden administration tells Israel not to strike, yet once Israel does strike/retaliate,
they get praised…COWARDS.
Does “proportional” mean to wait for something worse to happen CH”V?!
What is an unprovoked terrorist attack against Israeli citizens, including young adults at a music festival, women and children, proportionate to?
Mr Biden should shut up, eat his tapioca pudding and watch some reruns of Matlock on TV. Leave the running of the world to those who can form complete sentences.
