Here We Go Again: U.S. Airstrikes Against Iranian Republican Guard Targets In Syria And Iraq

From the Daily Mail: "US drops 125 bombs on 85 targets linked to Iran's Revolutionary Guard in devastating airstrikes on Iraq and Syria: Biden warns retaliation for drone attack that killed three soldiers will CONTINUE after long-range bombers and drones hit Middle East." According to the article, "[t]he president said the strikes will continue 'at times and places of our choosing' and warned militias in the Middle East: 'If you harm an American, we will respond'." Ah, yes, the infamous double-dog dare.
