Former National Security Advisor warns of muted response to Iran

US response to attacks will be less aggressive than expected

The United States is deliberating its response to the recent attack on a U.S. military base in Iraq, which resulted in the death of American soldiers and sparked concerns over escalating tensions with Iran. Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg, former National Security Advisor to Vice President Mike Pence, expressed his apprehension regarding the potential response from the U.S. government.

In a recent interview, Kellogg highlighted his concerns about the remarks made by John Kirby, a prominent figure in national security discussions. He believed that Kirby's comments indicated a restrained approach to the situation, suggesting that the U.S. would not respond aggressively. Kellogg expressed disappointment, as he had hoped for a robust response that would reestablish stability in the Middle East.
