US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin won't say who was behind a recent rocket attack on an American airbase in Iraq, but his eyes are on Iran, and he says the US will strike again "at a time and place of our own choosing." At least 10 missiles rained down on the Ain al-Asad airbase in the Iraqi province of Anbar on Wednesday ... The attack came after President Joe Biden ordered an airstrike on Iranian-backed militia targets in Syria – which was similarly said to be a response to a previous rocket attack on US targets in Iraq. Iran's level of control over the Shiite militias apparently responsible for the attacks is unclear ... Austin told ABC News in an interview released on Sunday. "You can expect that we will always hold people accountable for their acts," Austin said, adding that should the US respond with force, it will do so "at a time and place of our own choosing." Iran"... adding that the Islamic Republic should "choose to do the right things."
