1. Biden Let U.N. Sanctions on Iran Missiles Expire Before Unprecedented Israel Attack:
Breitbart – The administration of leftist President Joe Biden did not move to renew expiring sanctions in Iran’s drone and ballistic missile production at the United Nations in October, shortly after the Iran-backed massacre of an estimated 1,200 people in Israel and Saturday’s unprecedented direct missile assault by Iran on the country.
The Iranian military spent much of the past week threatening retaliation against Israel in response to a military operation targeting senior leaders of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC), an arm of the Iranian military and U.S.-designated terrorist organization. The operation resulted in the elimination of seven Iranian terrorists, most prominent among them Quds Force commander Mohammad Reza Zahedi.
Tehran finally acted on Saturday, launching over 300 drones and missiles towards Israeli territory. The barrage orchestrated directly by the Iranian military – and not one of its many proxy forces, such as Hezbollah in Lebanon or the Yemeni Houthi terrorist organization – was “unprecedented,” Biden said in response. It did not, however, result in major damage.
Denny’s Insight: Biden’s weakness in this entire situation is showing. Remember when everyone thought Trump would be the warmonger? And yet here’s Biden at the cusp of possible WWIII…
2. Oil expected to rise in wake of Iran’s attack on Israel:
Fox Business – Oil prices are expected to rise when markets open on Monday following Iran’s attack on Israel over the weekend after they reached a six-month high on Friday, according to analysts.
Iran launched over 300 drones and missiles at Israel from Iran, which the Israeli Defense Forces repelled the bulk of with assistance from the U.S., France, Jordan and the United Kingdom. The Israel Defense Force (IDF) said that only a “few” missiles and drones entered Israel and caused “minor damages” at the Nevatim Airbase.
Iran’s attack comes weeks after Iran blamed Israel for an attack on the Iranian consulate in Syria, which killed a top commander of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps’ overseas Quds Force. It’s the first time Iran has launched strikes on Israel despite more than four decades of hostilities between the two countries.
Denny’s Insight: Another factor of this war; expect prices to continue to rise…
3. House Intel Chairman Rips Biden Administration For Trying To Tie Israel’s Hands: ‘This Is Escalating’:
Daily Wire – House Intelligence Committee Chairman Mike Turner (R-OH) blasted the Biden administration over the weekend for its weakness toward Iran, warning that the administration was emboldening and empowering Iran’s terror throughout the Middle East.
Turner made the remarks during a Sunday interview on NBC News’s “Meet The Press” while talking about Iran’s unprecedented attack on Israel Saturday night, which included 185 one-way suicide drones, 110 surface-to-surface missiles, and 36 cruise missiles.
“Unfortunately, the Biden Administration’s view is that if you use missile defense, an attack didn’t happen,” he said. “That’s the way they reacted to the over 100 attacks that have occurred on U.S. troops from terrorist groups and organizations in Iraq and Syria, resulting in three deaths of American troops in Jordan, all by – by Iranian-backed groups and organizations. I think the administration needs to take seriously that this attack has happened. It’s unprecedented. And certainly, it needs to be viewed as an escalation. This is an escalating conflict.”
Denny’s Question: What are your thoughts on the Iran vs. Israel conflict? Should the U.S. be fully involved?
