President Biden held up the planned retaliatory strikes against the Iranian-backed Houthi rebels because of 'bad weather' with a military source saying that commanders prefer to strike in clear conditions in order to avoid civilian casualties. The president has signed off on the strikes, meaning it's a question of when, not if the US will hit back in the wake of the deaths of three servicemen last week in Jordan at the hands of a Houthi drone. A military source told CBS News that CENTCOM forces in the Middle East would rather wait until conditions in the region clear up before launching the counteroffensive.
