A Look at the United States' Strategy in the Middle East | EWTN News Nightly

About this sermon

Retired US Marine Corps Colonel and author of the book "Ghosts of Baghdad," Eric Buer, joins to share his thoughts on the United States' strategy in the Middle East so far and whether this bombing campaign has been effective. Just last evening, there was a drone attack in Syria at a military base where some US troops are stationed. No US service members were killed, but a number of Kurdish allied soldiers did lose their lives. Meanwhile, the Biden Administration says they don't want war or to escalate things, but it does seem like that is where this is all heading. Buer discusses whether a wider conflict can be avoided here. Iran has claimed it was not involved in the drone strike that killed 3 US troops and isn't involved in the decision making of those militant groups. Buer tells us his thoughts on that and whether he thinks that really is the case. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
