Adam Schiff: Biden’s Notification of Syria Airstrike Was ‘Inadequate’
Breitbart ^ | February 26 2021 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 02/27/2021 12:31:01 AM PST by knighthawk

Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA), Chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, criticized the Biden administration for the way it notified Congressional leaders about the U.S.’s military strike targeting Iran-backed military groups in eastern Syria on Thursday evening.

Schiff, who is a member of the Gang of Eight which receives briefings on classified intelligence matters by the executive branch, told CNN reporter Manu Raju that Biden’s “means of notification” if the strike was “inadequate.”

I believe this is the set up, or the beginning of it, to get Joe thrown under the bus. We have pencil neck in addition to the reports that Harris wasn’t even notified of the strike.

It will be interesting to see where this goes.

According to Jack Posobiec, Commiela wasn't notified at all.

On twitter, 2/25, Posobiec:

"Kamala Harris was not informed prior to the Syrian bombing and is very upset about being left out of the loop, per WH official"

I think Biden himself is shocked over the lack of notification of the airstrike. Jill probably told him after lunch....that he had made the decision before he went to bed the night before.

Biden didn’t order the strike. He is too incapacitated. Whoever is actually in control did. I have no idea who that would be, but I’m afraid I’m going down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole. Starting to think that maybe ... just maybe ... we really are under a form of martial law.

yep... you beat me again....

Of course it was inadequate....he didn’t know about it until someone read him his response long afterward. And then informed him again, and once again....and once again...you know about the thing...

Can we blame it on Russian intervention?

Maybe he meant to say "Let's do lunch, but said let's do launch."

What Schiff means by “inadequate” is that the Administration didn’t give him key intelligence information about the coming airstrike in Syria because they feared he would either leak it or hold a press conference to warn the Iranians and their Syrian proxies about it so that they could escape.

Schiff is insane and a traitor. At least someone in this crippled administration had the balls to call in the airstrike, even if they gave some kind of warning or waited until most people had left the strike area (to limit casualties, of terrorists - That makes no fu***ing sense. Our job is to kill terrorists, not to let them get away).

Our side should STFU and let our military take out our enemies wherever and whenever we can (usually in cooperation with our allies esp in the Middle East, but the same for hitting Al Shabab in Somalia and Omar in Minneapolis).

Biden’s a sock puppet, so is defacto fake President Harris.

biden is incapable of determining a complete thought, let alone deciding who to bomb and when.

These reports are boojit about biden.

Don’t blame Joe Blivious. The Joint Chiefs just run this stuff past him and goes, “Whatever”.

Another thing that Slow Joe is not aware that he did.

The real question?

Who and what did we actually destroy?

There are a number of bad players in Syria. There are a few good people away from Damascus.

“I believe this is the set up, or the beginning of it, to get Joe thrown under the bus”

Agreed. Started to think that way when the ‘Nuke’ codes came up.

In defense of Biden, and it will be a cold day in hell, before that happens, but that is probably exactly why Schiff did not get told. He would told our enemies about it.

Sure. NOW, it’s ok to criticize and get rid of Biden. How convenient.
