This is John Bachelor, conversation with my colleague Malcolm Honeline Conference of Presidents

Major American Jewish Organizations about the attack by Kataib Hezbollah.

This is the Hezbollah of Iraq, not Hezbollah of Lebanon, firing rockets into American bases again.

With casualties, we don't have a final count.

At least five were wounded. Has there been a response? Is there

any control over these random acts, apparently random acts ordered by Tehran? These are

Shia militia from Iraq. Malcolm reports and is

Hezbollah, Kataib Hezbollah regarded as part of the plan of attack by Iran. The answer is probably affirmative.

Here's Malcolm online to describe one form of attack by Iran that it's used in

these many months to go at the American forces deployed

in Jordan on the Iraq-Seria border.

More of this later tonight. It's part of their plan to, on the part of the forces opposing the West, and it shows that it's not about Israel, this is really about the West generally, that they hit the

facility and we have seen very limited, even verbal responses to it.

And we know that at least five American personnel

were injured once seriously

with the Katusha rocket attack

on the al-Assad Air Base in Western Iraq and

the Secretary Austin said that attack on US forces is a dangerous escalation

but it was not met by any kind of specific response.

The U.S. has reaffirmed its commitment to Israel's defense and to the threats posed by all of the array of

Iran's assets, but we cannot allow that Iran and Iran-Alind militias can attack US facilities which are there to protect Iraq and in Syria

and we'll have to see it whether anything further emerges.
