President Biden has made it clear that the United States does not want the Middle East conflict to escalate or wish to seek conflict with Iran, but will not hesitate to act swiftly and decisively should Iran or its proxies attack US personnel anywhere. Since mid-October, there have been multiple attacks on US troops in Iraq and Syria. The US is now responding in kind.
In a blatant breach of Iraqi sovereignty, the United States attacked Iranian-backed militias without notifying the Iraqi authorities. The action is equally condemnable to the Iranian-backed militias fighting US troops in Iraq, because the national interest of Iraq is violated by any armed operation or activity that takes place outside of its military institutions. These activities must end.
