A photo of U.S. President Joe Biden in military attire has circulated widely, depicting him in an operations room amidst rising tensions in the Middle East, particularly concerning Iran and its militias. This follows an attack that targeted a base in Jordan, resulting in the deaths of three military personnel and injuries to 35 others.
However, the widely shared image is actually AI-generated, showing Biden in military gear sitting at a desk with advisors, seemingly to illustrate that the U.S. is on the brink of declaring war.
One post on X stated: "The Commander-in-Chief is planning the upcoming devastating strikes against America’s many enemies." Another user commented, "This can't be real." Observers on social media pointed out anomalies in the image, such as Biden appearing to have six fingers in one photo and a phone wire melting into his arm, while an unidentified object was seen on the table.
Biden vowed to respond to a drone attack on Sunday that killed three American military personnel and injured 34 others stationed in northeastern Jordan near the border with Syria, blaming Iran-backed groups for the incident.
