Three U.S. soldiers have been confirmed dead as a result of a drone attack on a U.S. military base in Jordan, all from the U.S. Army Reserve in Georgia. Interestingly, this information was revealed by the deputy press secretary of the US Department of Defense. Although frequent attacks on US troops in the Middle East are no longer uncommon in the context of the escalating Palestinian-Israeli conflict, it is extraordinary to admit the US military's superiority. Because the United States has never admitted that a soldier was killed in the conflict, this time it made an exception to admit it, causing unease in the outside world.
According to reports, after the attack, Biden urgently summoned adviser Sullivan, Secretary of Defense Austin and Secretary of State Blinken for an emergency meeting to discuss countermeasures. Biden said the U.S. would hold accountable those responsible for the attack and respond in the U.S. way. At the same time, Johnson, speaker of the US House of Representatives, also took a personal statement, declaring that he would send a clear message to the world: attacks on the military will not be tolerated. Speaking of the loss of lives of three American soldiers in the Middle East, Johnson first expressed deep sorrow and then forcefully said "no tolerance." This has sparked speculation about whether the United States will retaliate with high-intensity military action, but the United States faces a number of potential adversaries.
At present, the US military in the Middle East is regularly targeted by militants, especially in a recent serious attack, when the Ain al-Assad air base in Iraq was hit by more than 20 rockets and ballistic missiles. Despite the fact that the air defense systems of the US military intercepted some missiles, some still hit the base, leading to the occurrence of **. This was revealed by the United States** as the worst attack on the US military in the Middle East since October last year. The United States had issued warnings but apparently failed to prevent the attacks, underscoring that warnings do not always work in practice.
Interestingly, the United States blamed Iran for the attack. Iraq's Islamic Resistance Group claimed responsibility for the attack, meaning that Iran was not responsible for the incident. The move has led to speculation that the United States may have chosen to point the finger at Iran for some reason. Under the current situation, Biden is faced with a dilemma, either to withdraw from the Middle East, give up support for Israel, and get rid of the shackles of petrodollars to avoid further attacks on US troops in the Middle East; Either insist on staying, go toe-to-toe with Iran, and gamble on the fortunes of the country. The U.S. option may be more biased towards the latter, as pointing the finger at Iran suggests that they already feel the urgency and really intend to act. Perhaps, rabbits will bite people when they are in a hurry, but the United States is not a rabbit, and even if they bite, I am afraid that no one will be afraid anymore.
