Jordan drone attack: US troops killed, 25 hurt after blast near Syria border | LiveNOW from FOX

Three U.S. service members were killed and 25 others were hurt in a drone attack on an outpost in Jordan near the Syria border, according to U.S. Central Command. The attack marks a significant escalation in the Middle East as tensions rise. Centcom said, "On Jan 28, three U.S. service members were killed and 25 injured from a one-way attack UAS that impacted at a base in northeast Jordan, near the Syria border. As a matter of respect for the families and in accordance with DoD policy, the identities of the servicemembers will be withheld until 24 hours after their next of kin have been notified." President Biden said in a statement, "we will hold all those responsible to account at a time and in a manner our choosing.” Biden attributed the attack to Iran-backed militia.

"They will never be forgotten by our nation."
What a load of bull. The media will forget them by tomorrow, 80% of Americans will not even know this happened.

American troops are guarding Jordan's borders, but the US border is wide open.

[kermit]

And people wonder why the military is struggling to recruit

[frederickscheller]

Sleepy Joe 😴 the worst president of all time time to bring trump back or is gonna be a WW3

[bigtoad]

We shouldn't even be there. Get our troops out of the middle east.

What the hell is American doing in Jordan???

[orosalsero]

This is an act of war, our soldiers need a better leader.

[mateosevilla]

Ain’t NO WAY sleepy Joe wrote that statement 😂😂

[borgsimpson]

If we actually had a
Commander in Chief
Who actually Commanded strength and respect. Might be different..

[Adam-rpvf]

Didn't even realise that US troops were in Jordan. Why are they in Jordan?

Unless there is a Jordan in the USA.

[raiderlife]

In my opinion, every country looks at us as weak ever since Biden was elected. We need a strong leader in the White House!!!

[EPFForsyth]

WTH are we still doing in Syria? Damn warmongers...

[michaelp]

Not one person on this internet believes this president wrote that cohesive thought.

[hamdiben]

Maybe it's time to pull out the troops?

[izzydoca]

What a coward!! He puts a a written statement which I'm sure is not from him. This should have been televised! It shouldn't have come to this. He's done nothing to prevent these attacks. Worthless president.

[mohamednaseer]

Wouldn't have hapoened if your military would have stayed at home.

[Xaveth]

Biden, our WW3 President, won't even know it's WW3.

[leroythemaster]

Does anyone on the planet believe Old Joe could write three, finely worded, paragraphs about anything?
You know he couldn't even read it out loud, let alone write it.

[NonyaBusiness-isfc]

If those troops would have stayed home, they would be fine today

[holystromboli]

Someone go wake up the president... I know it's Sunday, but it's after 12:30... we know that wasn't Joe's statement
