In a recent interview, Retired Lieutenant General Keith Kellogg shared his perspective on the recent airstrikes against Iranian-backed militia groups in Iraq and Syria. The general expressed concern over the timing and targets of the operations, highlighting the need for a stronger message to Iran.
Kellogg questioned the delay in taking action, pointing out that the longest delay during the Trump administration was four days, while the recent operation took nearly six days to commence. He argued that such delays give the enemy time to reset, rearm, and evacuate personnel, undermining the effectiveness of the strikes.
