Former Vice President Pence and former Secretary Pompeo recently contributed to the Wall Street Journal (WSJ), saying, “It’s time to strike back in Iran,” Yonhap News reported on the 10th.

They mentioned the incident on the 27th of last month when three American soldiers were killed in a drone attack by a pro-Iranian militia at a US military station in Jordan, and they said, “We cannot tolerate any more acts of violence by people the world. an unparalleled state sponsor of terrorism (referring to Iran).” “We can’t help but punish,” he said. “The United States must respond with an immediate and clear show of force.” “This will begin to restore weak deterrence not only in the Middle East but around the world.”

He then said, “Appeasement has never worked in history,” and called for a direct attack on Iran.

Meanwhile, Iran is known to support major armed groups in Middle Eastern countries such as Syria as well as Hezbollah amid regional tensions related to the war between Israel and Hamas. On the 27th of last month, three US soldiers, including Sergeant William Jerome Rivers, were killed and more than 40 injured in a drone attack by a pro-Iranian militia targeting a US military base in the Jordan.
