Joe Biden, Air Strikes and the Nobel Peace Prize- here’s how Twitter ties all of them together

President Joe Biden on Thursday ordered airstrikes on buildings in Syria that the Pentagon said were used by Iranian-backed militias, in retaliation for rocket attacks on U.S. targets in neighbouring Iraq, reports NBC.

The strikes killed at least 22 people, London-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Friday, citing unconfirmed local reports.

Pentagon press secretary John Kirby portrayed the bombing in eastern Syria as carefully calibrated, calling it “proportionate” and “defensive.”

Many users on Twitter are saying (sarcastically) that this makes Jow Biden the perfect candidate for a Nobel Peace Prize.

This comes after former US President Barack Obama was conferred with the Nobel Peace Prize, even after the US dropped 26,171 bombs by the end of 2016, the majority of which was during Obama’s term in office, according to The Guardian.

Here are some tweets regarding the issue:
