Biden is doing everything he can to hand Donald Trump a mess. But this takes the cake.
Because Joe Biden declared war on this foreign nation and now the world is on fire.
In the wake of the Assad regime’s collapse in Syria over the weekend, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) revealed that American forces carried out “precision airstrikes targeting known ISIS camps and operatives” in central Syria on Sunday.
CENTCOM detailed its operation as an effort to prevent ISIS from exploiting Syria’s chaotic situation.
“The strikes against the ISIS leaders, operatives, and camps were conducted as part of the ongoing mission to disrupt, degrade, and defeat ISIS, in order to prevent the terrorist group from conducting external operations and to ensure that ISIS does not seek to take advantage of the current situation to reconstitute in central Syria,” the statement read.
The operation involved a massive show of strength, hitting over 75 targets using advanced assets like B-52s, F-15s, and A-10s.
While CENTCOM claimed no civilian casualties and emphasized ongoing efforts with regional partners, the timing and effectiveness of the strikes raise questions about the Biden administration’s response to an escalating crisis.
General Michael Erik Kurilla warned:
“There should be no doubt — we will not allow ISIS to reconstitute and take advantage of the current situation in Syria. All organizations in Syria should know that we will hold them accountable if they partner with or support ISIS in any way.”
Meanwhile, reports surfaced that Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad had fled to Russia with his family, securing asylum in Moscow as rebel forces stormed Damascus.
This dramatic turn of events marks a significant failure for Biden, whose foreign policy decisions continue to embolden adversaries while leaving Americans skeptical about his leadership.
In public remarks, President Joe Biden highlighted the airstrikes, stating his administration’s resolve to prevent ISIS from regaining strength.
“We’re clear-eyed about the fact that ISIS will try to take advantage of any vacuum to re-establish its capabilities and to create a safe haven,” Biden said.
“We will not let that happen.”
But after years of Biden’s missteps in the Middle East, many wonder whether his words carry weight or are just more empty promises.
In contrast, President-elect Donald Trump, poised to take office in just over five weeks, offered a refreshingly bold perspective.
Posting on X, Trump called Syria a “mess” and firmly stated that the United States should “NOT GET INVOLVED!”
Trump’s clear stance reflects his America First philosophy and signals a dramatic shift from Biden’s muddled, interventionist approach.
