The White House National Security spokesman John Kirby has come out making daring claims that Iran actually heeded President Biden’s warning to “not escalate” after Israel took out Gen. Mohammad Reza Zahedi. That’s right, folks, the Biden administration thinks we can all believe that Iran magically decided to play nice and not retaliate after their top general was eliminated. Kirby claims that despite launching an attack shortly after, Iran was actually listening to President Biden. Talk about wishful thinking!

Let’s be real here, folks. We all know Iran is not one to simply sit back and take a hit without hitting back. It’s like expecting a roaring lion to turn into a kitten after being poked with a stick. It just ain’t gonna happen! So, excuse us if we find it a little hard to swallow Kirby’s claim that Iran was somehow taking heed of President Biden’s words.
The Biden administration seems to have a habit of living in an alternate reality where they believe their words hold some magical power over rogue nations like Iran. News flash, folks: the real world doesn’t work that way! Iran has a long history of defying warnings and engaging in hostile actions, regardless of who’s in the White House. So, forgive us if we don’t buy the idea that they suddenly had a change of heart after a sternly worded statement from President Biden.
It’s time for the Biden administration to wake up and smell the coffee. Iran isn’t going to change its behavior based on empty threats and meaningless warnings. It’s going to take much stronger action and a firm stance to deal with a country like Iran. Maybe it’s time for President Biden to step out of the fantasy land where Iran listens to his every word and start facing the harsh realities of international relations.
