Joe Biden has said he has decided how to respond to a drone strike in northern Jordan which killed three American soldiers and wounded dozens more, as the Iran-backed militia that Washington blamed for the attack said it had suspended anti-US operations.
As Washington pondered its response, Kataib Hezbollah announced the suspension of all its military operations against US troops in the region, claiming the decision was intended to prevent “embarrassment” to the Iraqi government.
Biden told reporters that he held Iran responsible for the drone strike on a US base on the Jordanian-Syrian border on Sunday, “in the sense that they’re supplying the weapons” to Kataib Hezbollah.
Well the silence means it’s a military option.
If it was diplomatic he could talk about it prior.
“Are they working? No. Are they going to continue? Yes.”
Does he plan on letting us in on the secret?
Oh sure. Smart leaders always tell their enemies what they plan to do. /s
Trump would have drawn lines on the map.

Genius. Confuses the shit out of your adversaries, not to say anything about your own military.
So then maybe don’t announce that he’s made a decision.
Notable that KH has already announced cessation of hostilities. Smells like back channel negotiations, which would be good news imo.

This needs to happen. The military is so unimaginative, it’s all bombs and drones with those guys.
