Middle East Crisis: Can America protect Americans in the Gulf?

President Biden has strong military assets in the Middle East but he's not using them in the right way.

The U.S. doesn't have a large footprint in Israel and surrounding countries. Its citizens and diplomatic and military facilities are dispersed throughout the region. Any of these could be targets as Hamas, its supporters, and Iran stir up anti-Americanism as part of their war on Israel. Already, Iranian surrogates have launched dozens of attacks on U.S. military posts in Iraq and Syria—a campaign no doubt orchestrated by the IRGC.
