Iran on Friday launched an attack on Israel a day after President Joe Biden warned Tehran not to.
“We are devoted to the defense of Israel,” he added. “We will support Israel. We will defend — help defend Israel, and Iran will not succeed.”
Biden was planning on spending the weekend in Rehoboth Beach but returned earlier in the day and was slated to meet with his national security team in the Situation Room.
Critics slammed Biden for weakness on Iran. Cliff Sims, a former senior Trump administration official, posted on X: “Biden reversed all the Trump policies that made Iran weaker and poorer. Now they’re spending all the money Biden gave them attacking Israel, terrorizing the world and threatening to plunge us into WWIII.”

Morgan Ortagus, former Trump State Department press secretary, said in a post: “Reminder: “Biden allowed the UN sanctions on Iran’s drones and ballistic missiles to expire less than six months ago. The very same drones and missiles en route to Israel right now.”

Remember when they said Trump would get us into a full-blown war with Iran?
Times like these should make us all realize how lucky we were to have Trump, his strength and his resolve.

CNN: Biden departed the beach “moments ago,” just as Iran began its attacks on Israel.

Joe Biden has spent the past few weeks trying to shore up support from the pro-Hamas wing of his party – is it any surprise Iran attacks Israel while the guy is somewhere on a beach in Delaware when he should have been in the White House working to avoid WWIII?!
