JUST IN - WATCH: REPORTER QUESTIONS U.S RESPONSE TO ATTACKS Reporter (Jacqui Heinrich): "The president said that if Iran or its proxies attacked U.S troops, that we would respond. What is he waiting for?" John Kirby: "He did say that" Reporter: "So repeating the warning is the response??" MY THOUGHTS: Iran-backed groups are trying to provoke the U.S, with the intention of slowing support for Israel, and Israel's invasion of Gaza. A calm controlled response from the U.S is what we need, not a heavy-handed response. Showing strength is important, but not at the risk of escalating this war into a dangerous regional conflict.
