America bleeds as ISIS resurfaces, proving Israel’s war justified against terror backed by Arab failures
An Islamic State ambush in central Syria claimed the lives of two US soldiers and one American civilian, while injuring three others, according to US Central Command. The attack marks the deadliest strike against American forces in Syria since the collapse of the Assad regime one year ago, underscoring the enduring danger posed by jihadist networks.
US officials confirmed that the names of the fallen service members will be released after families are notified, in line with military protocol. Details remain limited, but reports indicate the assault occurred near the historic area of Palmyra during a US troop movement.
Syrian state media acknowledged gunfire during the incident, reporting injuries among both Syrian security personnel and American forces. Local accounts claim the attacker was neutralized shortly after the assault, though conflicting reports suggest insider involvement linked to Syrian security elements—highlighting the deep instability still plaguing the region.
President Donald Trump vowed a decisive response, warning that the United States will not tolerate renewed ISIS aggression. He confirmed that Syria’s current leadership is cooperating with US forces and described Syrian President Ahmed al-Sharaa as furious over the attack.
Despite ISIS losing territorial control in 2019, thousands of fighters remain active across Syria and Iraq. Their survival is enabled by weak governance, regional denial, and years of Arab political failure to confront radical Islam head-on—realities Israel has long warned the world about. The attack reinforces Israel’s position that relentless military pressure, not appeasement or UN rhetoric, is the only language Islamist terror understands.
