'Why are we in Syria? Iraq?' Ramaswamy slams US interventionist policy

Vivek Ramaswamy, a candidate for the Republican presidential nomination, slams the US outdated interventionist foreign policy in the Middle East.

Vivek Ramaswamy, a Republican presidential candidate, said the United States possesses an outdated interventionist approach in the Middle East.

"They're attacking us in places that we shouldn't have been. Why are we in Syria? Why are we in Iraq? We shouldn't have been in either of those places," Ramaswamy stated at the Hudson Institute on Tuesday, adding that the current strategy involves certain ill intentions but is primarily based on an outdated concept of "interventionist foreign policy."

"That put us in a place to be attacked," Ramaswamy said.

With "Israel" seemingly heading for a ground invasion of the Gaza Strip, the worry is increasing that it might become vulnerable to a possible attack from the north by Hezbollah, as noted by Ramaswamy.

A senior Biden administration official has lately revealed the White House's concern about the ground invasion, assessing that the IOF are not ready to initiate a military invasion of Gaza and that the plan lacks achievable objectives to strategize the invasion.

US and Israeli officials relay that US President Joe Biden and his top aides have been cornering "Israel" to refrain from executing a major strike against the Lebanese Resistance, Hezbollah, that could draw it into the war.

The warning comes amid concern that members of the Israeli war cabinet want to challenge Hezbollah after the launch of Operation Al-Aqsa Flood on October 7, since US officials see that "Israel" cannot handle a two-front war, which would potentially bring in both the United States and Iran.

This would potentially become inevitable if the US and "Israel" carry out a ground invasion in Gaza. 

Biden replied "not true" when asked about a report that his aides have told Israeli occupation officials that if Hezbollah starts a war against "Israel", the US military will join the confrontation.

The effort by top US officials to stop an Israeli attack on Hezbollah is reflected in the US' fear over Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's decision-making as both entities strive to present a united front.

The Biden administration feared that Netanyahu would greenlight a pre-emptive strike on Hezbollah. Even though those fears were scaled down after Netanyahu backtracked, anxieties remain with the presence of two possibilities: either a hysterical overreaction by "Israel" to Hezbollah's rockets or a possible ground invasion in Gaza that would leave no choice for Hezbollah but to enter the war.
