“How many times do you get attacked and your troops targeted before you realize one of the attacks is gonna kill people?” blasted Fox News host Sean Hannity on Tuesday as he interviewed Ret. Lt. Col. Oliver North on Biden’s foreign policy on Iran.

Hannity further said, “This administration has frankly opted for a policy of ass-kissing appeasement.”

The demand to “go hard” on Iran intensified after the drone strike killed servicemen stationed in Jordan.

North then suggested, “The theocracy in Tehran needs to be told the next time a U.S. installation is attacked, a U.S. personnel, a U.S. ship, we’re gonna hold the Tehran regime responsible.”

And further suggested that the US can consider shutting “their ability to export oil.”

North also suggested Biden to think “strategically about things.”

“This administration is going to get us into World War III by not deterring people like the Iranians.”

The former Marine official was instrumental in the Iran-Contra controversial arms sales during the Reagan administration. He facilitated the sale of weapons to Iran despite sanctions implemented by the Reagan administration after the 1979 Iranian Revolution.

The arms deal with the Iran-backed Hezbollah rebels is in exchange for the release of American hostages detained in Lebanon. The sales are then sent to Nicaraguan Contras to fund their destabilization of the Soviet-controlled Sandinista regime.

Lt. North took the blame for the scandal and was subsequently dismissed by President Ronald Reagan. He was convicted of covering the incident but was cleared after appealing his case. By 1987, Reagan admitted that he approved the arms trade for hostages.

Hannity and North are weighing in on the death of three American service members killed by a drone attack sponsored by Iran-supported Hezbollah militants that operate in Syria and Iraq.

According to reports, the Jordan strike was the first in more than 150 attacks repelled by the U.S. forces deployed in the Middle East since October 19.

The attack is part of the ongoing conflict in the region as the U.S. started retaliating against Houthi forces in Yemen who are striking commercial ships traversing the Red Sea. Israel, on the other hand, launched a counter-attack in Gaza, after Hamas terrorist attack in October last year.

Biden, who has yet to decide on the issue, is also being criticized for his failure to contact the families of the three American soldiers.

According to Jacqui Heinrich, Fox News White House correspondent, Biden has not yet reached out to the families of Sgt. William Rivers, Specialist Kennedy Sanders, and Specialist Breonna Moffet.

This update shocked Fox News Host Harris Faulkner, who quipped, “It has been three days.”

Faulkner continued, “Well, we’ll thank them. We’ll thank those families and those patriots we’ve lost and all those men and women in harm’s way in the Middle East. We’ll say thank you and tell them that we love them.”

Adding insult to injury, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, who offered condolences to the fallen soldiers, was quoted saying: “Our deepest, obviously our deepest condolences go out, and our heartfelt condolences go out to the families who lost, uh, three, three brave, uh, three brave, uh, three brave, three folks who are military folks, who are brave, who are always fighting, who are fighting on behalf of, uh, this administration, of the American people, obviously more so, more importantly,”

Pierre earned backlash on social media, as people described her remarks as “disgusting.”
