White House National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan was making the rounds of the Sunday shows this morning, and he was asked both about Ukraine and the missile attack targeting the U.S. Consulate in Erbil, Iraq on Saturday.
Here’s an Iranian social channel claiming it was an attack on the “Mossad’s den of espionage.” Multiple missiles were fired toward the Consulate, reportedly from Iran. None hit the Consulate, and there were no American injuries.
But you would think that the White House would have a swift reaction to the targeting of the U.S. Consulate to punish the Iranians, or that at least they would be immediately cutting off discussions on the horrible Iran Deal that they have been trying to push through. No such luck. So far, there has been no military response reported to the attack.
Sullivan was asked about their response by “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan. “Iran’s Revolutionary Guard has now claimed responsibility for firing ballistic missiles into northern Iraq towards a location where the US consulate is located. Are you condemning Iran for carrying out this attack?” Sullivan said they condemned it, but then he seemed to downplay it, adding that no one was hurt. “We’re still gathering information on what precisely the target was. What we know at this hour, Margaret, is that no U.S. facilities were hit. No U.S. persons were harmed. But the United States is absolutely clear, we will do whatever it takes to defend our people, our interests, and our allies, and we are in consultation with the Iraqi government and the government in Iraqi Kurdistan, in part to help them get the […]
They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
