    An Iranian drone harassed a U.S. air craft carrier in the Persian Gulf on Tuesday, according to a U.S. defense official.

    The incident comes after Iranian terrorist proxies in the region have hijacked and attempted to hijack cargo ships and tankers in recent weeks that are tied to Israel.

    "An Iranian drone flew near the USS Eisenhower in the Persian Gulf today," Fox News correspondent Liz Friden said. "The Ike was in international waters & the Iranian drone ignored multiple warnings. This is being deemed unsafe & unprofessional."

    One video that circulated on social media this week purported to show footage from an Iranian drone that was harassing the same carrier strike group.

    The footage appears to correlate with statements from an official in Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) who said that the drone's presence interfered with U.S. helicopter operations, according to Iran's state-run Farsnews Agency.

    Satellite imagery from this week showed the carrier strike group only 62 miles away from Iran, a clear sign from the U.S. that Iran should not escalate tensions in the region.

    However, the message does not seem to be being heard by Iran, as its terrorist proxies have launched at least 74 attacks against U.S. forces in the region since October 17 - a little over a week after Hamas' unprecedented terrorist attack against Israel.

    The U.S. has responded by striking some facilities that Iran and its proxies use in Syria, but have refrained from punching back hard against the world's leading state sponsor of terrorism.

    The New York Times reported that Biden has "rejected more aggressive bombing options proposed by the Pentagon" to keep U.S. forces safe because he is afraid of "provoking" Iran.

26 days after the October 7th Terror attacks on Israel, where over 1400 Jewish men, women and children were gruesomely murdered, and hundreds more made hostage: Should the Biden /Harris administration finally state that the administration's primary Middle East negotiating partner, Iran, is behind the funding and strategy of the aggressors, the Hamas Terrorists, or continue to take the more moderate position of "Don't," which is clearly not working?
  Yes, name Iran as the funding /strategy culprit, and begin to enforce the President Trump era sanctions to END Iran's ability to prosecute this war against Israel and the United States.
  No, Iran is a valuable partner in the motives of the Biden / Harris administration, and must not be named as the culprit and our enemy.
  I have larger concerns just to survive in this economy.

In the minds of many, since January 20, 2021, the World has become far less safe in every theater of conflict, beginning with the attack of Israel by Iran /Hamas, so the question becomes: What caused this Worldwide calamity of extreme geopolitical dysfunction, and what will correct it?
  Joe Biden is the cause of this frightening Worldwide situation, and it will end when a Republican is elected president.
  This delayed Worldwide dysfunction and constant conflict is all Donald Trump's fault, as it is with everything that occurs going forward, and long before the man ever became the 45th president..
  Joe Biden is the "root cause" of this frightening Worldwide situation, and it will end when former President Donald John Trump is elected president.
  In the imitable words of Alfred E. Newman: "What, me worry?"
