“My prayers are with the families of the three U.S. service members killed and so far 50 others reported injured in last night's Iranian-backed attack on our soldiers,” said Congressman Palmer (R-Hoover). I will dedicate it to you.”

“Iran may have supported the attack, but it was made possible by weak leadership from the White House. The Iranian regime and its proxies continue to escalate attacks against U.S. military personnel in the region, and have repeatedly Despite warnings, the Biden administration's response has been lukewarm, ultimately costing the lives of U.S. military personnel and clear terrorists and their Iranian sympathizers with deadly threats from the White House. We do not fear retaliation. This tragic situation is predictable and poses additional danger to the men and women who serve our communities.”

“Peace can only come through strength,” Britt continued.

“We know that the Iranian regime is responsible for these deaths and the bloody chaos that is unfolding across the region. This is the same regime that is the largest state sponsor of terrorism on the planet. Remember: This is the same administration that the Biden administration has recklessly enriched to the tune of billions of dollars. And it is the same administration that the Biden administration continues to pursue with its bone-crushing maximum pressure sanctions campaign. This is the same administration that stubbornly refuses to implement this. If the president seizes this moment even more recklessly, even more American lives will be lost. Malicious actors are taking notice. To ultimately achieve deterrence and protect Americans at home and abroad, the U.S. response must be swift, decisive, and overwhelming.”

President Joe Biden said the United States “will hold everyone responsible accountable at once, in the way we choose.” Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin said: “We will take all actions necessary to protect America, our military, and our interests.”
