Drawing parallels with historical instances of appeasement, he warned that failing to confront the Iranian threat head-on may ultimately necessitate a more significant and costly response in the future.
Neil declared that he believed Biden “needs to stop pussy-footing around with Iran. The mullahs see a weak, distracted president who lets them get away with murder (now, literally). He needs to disabuse them of that pronto.”
Neil further called for a reevaluation of the administration’s approach, urging President Biden to adopt a tougher stance against Tehran. Suggestions include targeting leaders of the Iran Revolutionary Guard Counsel’s Quds Force and sending explicit warnings of consequences for further attacks on US personnel.
