U.S. Drone Strike Smokes Multiple Iranian-Backed Terrorist Leaders: Reports | Eastern NC Now

    A U.S. drone strike killed multiple Iranian-backed terrorist leaders on Wednesday night in Baghdad, Iraq, according to initial reports.

    The strike comes after the Biden administration was widely criticized last week for repeatedly telegraphing its plans to hit certain targets in Iraq and Syria in response to Iranian-backed terrorists killing three U.S. soldiers and wounding dozens more in a suicide drone attack on a U.S. base in Jordan.

    "U.S. drone struck [an] SUV driving through Baghdad with a hellfire missile killing three in the car," said Hussain Abdul-Hussain, Research Fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies (FDD). "Of them, two leaders from the Iran loyalist Iraq militia Kataeb Hezbollah (Abu Baqer Al-Saidi and Arkan Al-Aliyawi)."

    "At least one is believed to be responsible for the militia's operations in Syria, from where the militia launched an explosive drone that hit a U.S. base in Jordan and killed three U.S. troops," Abdul-Hussain added. "America's long arm of justice."

    A source told Agence France Presse (AFP) that a drone "fired three rockets at a 4X4 car".

    A U.S. official confirmed to VOA News that the U.S. was behind the strike on the high-value target.


    Local Arabic-speaking media said that the third person killed in the vehicle was Abu Tahseen Al-Hamidawi from the Al-Nujaba Movement, another terrorist group backed by 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?"
