Joe Biden expects Iran to attack Israel

Joe Biden believes that Iran will attack Israel “sooner than latter.” Someone asked Biden about the possibility of this attack. He didn’t go further than “sooner than latter” because he didn’t want to touch on secure information. Joe Biden also had an opportunity to present his message to Iran. His response was a single word, “Don’t.”

From Fox News:

President Biden said he expects Iran to attack Israel “sooner than later” as tensions continue to heighten between the Middle East powers.

Biden was asked Friday how imminent a potential attack on Israel is from Tehran following an Israeli strike on Iran’s Damascus consulate in Syria. Iranian officials have publicly threatened to attack Israel for the airstrike.

“I don’t want to get into secure information, but my expectation [is] sooner than later,” he replied.

“We are devoted to the defense of Israel,” he added. “We will support Israel. We will defend, help defend Israel and Iran will not succeed.”

When asked what his message to Tehran was, Biden simply said: “Don’t.” When he was asked to elaborate, he walked away.

  1. When it comes to the headlines these days, I’ve got a really simple philosophy: maybe, maybe not. Saves me a lot of stress.

    1. As the sun rises, its good to see that Israel’s military out performed Iran. Good thing Sleepy Joe cut short his “weekend retreat” for a photo op with the other incompetent fools in his cabinet. I guess that strongly worded ‘don’t’ carried so much weight <heavy sarcasm>. Remember when Soleimani was b-b-q-ed by Trump and mullahs did diddly squat? Man, I can’t wait for Trump to take over again.

  2. Yahoo! Let’s wag that dog!

    Get us a war worked up right before the election. It isn’t like he hasn’t already cost of the respect of 90% of the nations on the planet already. Let’s double down on stupid.

  3. What a very powerful “Don’t” message. Bravo Mr. pResident! Bravo! Sarc/

  4. They seized a large containership off Hormuz today — I’d say they’re well on their way to FAFO Land.

    1. They dun messed up A. Aron. Biden’s umpteenth beach vacation this year was cut short.

      Pretty certain there are some Israeli commanders looking forward to stating that they “will fight in the shade” as the Persian Iranian drones block out the sun.

    2. Flipping through the channels, and MSNBC had an unflattering footage of PINO doing the Zombie Walk back to the WH. Shuffle….shuffle…shuffle. I think the network saw how terrible the optics were, and quickly cut away. A man barely alive – to quote intro to 6 Mil Dollar Man.

  5. “Don’t”…

    “Don’t” what? Attack Israel? Iran is going to do what Iran does, and they don’t care what a weakened nation’s PINO halfway across the world says. Sounds more to me like a dare. “Don’t, because if/when you do, we’ll be more than willing to expend American lives and dollars to prove ourselves as the tough guys in the room.”

    I think that most of us would agree that Iran poses little threat to Israel and almost no threat to the US. Maybe I’m wrong…I don’t stay abreast of affairs in the ME, but Israel comes across as the strongest individual presence in the region. Where things could get iffy is if other Muslim nations dogpile them.

    But hey, going back to my first paragraph, that’s where we get involved, right? FJB and crew might have a chance to prove how effective they are at solving the world’s problems. Our senior military “leaders” can get their names in the history books, and there’s always room for deployments and the associated promotions and decorations that go with them. I’m part of that generation of American Soldiers who knew back-to-back deployments (though I only went overseas twice), and there are still many who yearn for the glory days of Iraq this year, Afghanistan next year, “How many deployments you got? That Instructor doesn’t even have a combat patch. I got my CAB from an IED, yeah, well, I got my CIB from a close ambush.”

    Ol’ Joe needs a war to prove his mettle as our CinC. Afghanistan made him look weak–I take that back, showed how weak he and his selected cabinet members and military leadership is.

  6. Well, someone’s going to do what McCain said. “Bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb, bomb Iran!”

  7. And they’re OFF!!!!!

    https://www.foxnews.com/world/iran-launches-drones-towards-israel-weeks-after-deadly-syria-consulate-strike

    “The Houthis have been firing long range drones which are very similar to what the Iranians have just fired. They can either be taken down by the Iron Dome or by David Sling, or by helicopters or by fighter jets or a combination of them,” Conricus said. “So, a lot of ways to get them down and the fact that we are tracking them and seeing them in-coming, that’s quite reassuring. But maybe the Iranians have something more interesting up their sleeve, we’ll see.”

    The Israel’s have lasers. Drones are kind of meaningless. They launch a hundred they might get lucky with one.

  8. When the mad muthers make their attack, anyone else think that they may behold…a Pale Horse?

    Hell, bring it on, Imma ’bout ready for that Seventh (7th) Seal to be opened. Are you?

    Prepare

    1. They already did.

      I am betting this means Iran has nukes now. So any time now, yep. Just wish I had paid more attention in bible study. I won’t get sucked up to heaven in the first wave. They will make stand behind the ropes and sweat it out.

      1. Whoever is unjust let him be unjust still
        Whoever is righteous let him be righteous still
        Whoever is filthy let him be filthy still
        Listen to the words long written down
        When the man comes around

    2. We are not at that point. Here’s an image of what is meant by the four horsemen of the apocalypse:

    1. “Iran has begun an airborne attack against Israel,” National Security Council spokesperson Adrienne Watson said in a Saturday statement. “The United States will stand with the people of Israel and support their defense against these threats from Iran.”

      Because????

        1. Ok, that is legit. I’ll go ahead and send them my credit card number so they can buy the essentials.

        2. just searched “hot idf chicks”…

          and now I don’t know where the last hour went.

          1. You know there are two totally different meanings between when a man or woman says, “I used a whole box of tissues during that movie.”

        3. I wonder if the IDF would take an old
          Broken, disabled, 60+, Chairforce, dood for, hell I don’t know, young IDF troop MWR purposes..

  9. I’ll be down in the bunker if anyone needs me. Going to review my library of 1980s nuclear Armageddon flicks. America 3000 or Land of Doom? Decisions, decisions….

  10. According to the IDF, Iran launched 200 missles and drones at Israel, and 99% of them were intercepted and shot down.

          1. Nope. What a meat puppet says spontaneously is not meant to be taken seriously. Alas, it was not read off a teleprompter.

        1. Don’t what?
          Run with scissors?
          Chew with your mouth open?
          Talk when your mouth is full?
          Wash your hands before eating or after going to the bathroom?
          Blame him… for anything?

    1. They are saying the vast majority were taken out by the Jordanian Clay Shooting Team. Bet they weren’t expecting that. Violate my Air Space MF and see what happens….

  11. I’d like to see Joe converted to islam, wearing an orange jumpsuit, right there on this private beach.

    DOKTOR Jill can be thrown in a pen of ordained goats.

    1. You really don’t think our phony catholic president isn’t the anti-Christ? Or that idiot pretender who sits in the throne of St. Peter? We got multiples. Fuck the Jesuits. And yes, the lower case “catholic” and “president” are intentional.

        1. Yeah, well Joe’s probably too stupid to be the anti-Christ, but I’m not sure about that fucker in Rome. I hope he croaks soon and we get a real Pope.

      1. Anti-Christ, like Satan, will be “beautiful”, attractive and charismatic. Joe Biden is more akin to dried vomit on passenger door from the night before.

  12. THE TRILLION DOLLAR QUESTION !

    WILL BENJY USE IRAN ATTACK TO GO FOR IRAN NUKE PROGRAMS ?

    ACCURATE BALLISTIC MISSILES =SOLUTION 

    IF FROM 100000 MISSILES – 1 LANDS IN JERUSALEM & IT HAS NUKE WARHEAD !

    THAT IS THE IRANIAN MESSAGE, TO ISRAEL

    1. Yeah. I approved it and even edited the name. A reasoned well though-out comment is appreciated here. Hyperbolic rants in all caps with exclamation points are just bonus. I look forward to the calm measured replies for which TAH is famous.

    2. Look, I like doompr0n as much as the next man… ok, more, but there’s no way Iran uncorks a nuke first.
      (Well, at least in a direct attack. Surreptitious or asymmetric, maybe)

      Crystal ball: Israel stays blasting targets in Iraq, Lebanon, Gaza, Syria Yemen with an increased intensity to ‘protect themselves’ and reduce the likelihood of pissing off the Abraham signatories.

      In sum:

    3. And the message Israel would respond with if it weren’t busy at the moment would be to GFY. BUT, since they have other things going on presently, I will tell you for them… get bent.

  13. This headline makes me laugh.

    We knew there was an attack coming since the consulate bombing.

    Every stakeholder was aware, and knew exactly the window because Iran made it clear that they were going to attack, approximately when the attack would happen, and what the attack would be.

    Which is why we were at 100% readiness to mitigate the attack.

    They also made it clear the attack is not intended to escalate tensions but to respond to the attack on the consulate that can’t be left without a response.

    This attack was essentially a negotiated response.

    1. One innocent little girl critically injured in exchange for the lives of a few guilty Quds officers (with Israeli blood still on their hands)….

      Even if “proportionate response” came down to anything more than the “extended hostilities” it really means, that is hardly proportionate.

      Iran’s debt remains outstanding, and is growing.

    2. “Iran informed Turkey in advance of its planned operation against Israel, a Turkish diplomatic source told Reuters on Sunday, adding that Washington had conveyed to Tehran via Ankara that any action it took had to be “within certain limits.””
