U.S. preparing to send more troops to Middle East

[EvilEyeFleegle]

As the other shoe drops..predictably:


Acting U.S. Defense Secretary Patrick Shanahan announced on Monday the deployment of about 1,000 more troops to the Middle East for what he said were "defensive purposes," citing concerns about a threat from Iran.
"The recent Iranian attacks validate the reliable, credible intelligence we have received on hostile behavior by Iranian forces and their proxy groups that threaten United States personnel and interests across the region," Shanahan said in a statement.
Reuters first reported plans to send U.S. additional troops to the Middle East earlier on Monday

Adam Schiff is in on the Zionist conspiracy to demonize Iran. /sarcastic

I think Iran did what they did to test the waters and see if we let them slide. I think if we do let them slide, their behavior will worsen

You seem to be implying through your tone that you don’t approve of our actions. Why?

 

[Jitss617]

problem is and you dont want to face reality,you are too afraid, that this is FACT.this is WHY they are going over there.

United States personnel and interests across the region = the big oil companies

The American people have learned NOTHING from the military industrial complex's use of our government and the global economy to enrich their bottom line and advance their personal agendas.
This is literally a carbon copy of the case for war made prior to our invasion of Iraq, Afghanistan, Grenada, Panama, Libya, Kuwait, Bosnia, Serbia, Lebanon, Ziare, Cambodia, Laos, Viet Nam, Korea...
The security of the United States and the safety of our citizens was NEVER a legitimate risk prefacing any of these military actions.
In every case, the personal fortunes of the owners and executives of arms manufacturers and dealers, and those of various other industries were aided by the use of taxpayer funded US troops being forced into action.
The only legitimate purpose of our military is for National Defense.
The Projection of Power is the exact OPPOSITE of Defense. It is an OFFENSIVE military action.
In EVERY instance, the use of force has been the result of the failure of our leaders to Engage in diplomacy effectively, or their utter disregard of the efforts of diplomats under our employ.

They called it credible intel when they invaded Iraq too for WMD's

Gulf of Tonkin ring a bell?


Well, how about that? Trump's promised Middle-East peace plan is now coming to fruition. See what happens when you break treatys with other countrys, for no particular good reason.

Who/what are we defending? The Saudi's, Israel, who? Let them defend themselves. It isn't necessary for us to be there. Trump just wants a war with Iran and will make up stories trying to stir up the American people, just like when Bush said there was chemical weapons in Iraq and would have thought, they never found any.


This feels like deja vu all over again.


Great start a war a year before the election. Then use a scare tactic to gain votes. I feel like we been here before.

And so it begins. Comrade Trump thinks he won't be Impeached if he's a "Wartime" leader, and lets face it, he's been looking for a distraction from these investigations, so what better way to thank Netanyahu for naming a Settlement after him. Bolton has been wanting to attack Iran for at least a decade or more. The Saudi Prince would love if the U.S. fought the war they wanted with Iran. So along with a distraction, Comrade Trump makes the Saudi Prince happy, Netanyahu happy, and Bolton happy, plus Comrade Trump thinks it will win his re-election, if he's still around to run in 2020. Impeach him now before the republicans get us into another unnecessary war.....

this is WHY we are having a war Trump is in favor of.class dismissed.

Hmmm...it's either too much..or too little. Too little if we wish to be effective...too much if we wish to avoid the mire.
It's just another rattle of the sabre. Everyone saw it coming--so it has little real impact...IMO.

We had to do something rather than stand pat. I don’t mind us taking a more aggressive posture, but I do not wish for violence. Ultimately I think Iran’s behavior will be the determining factor.

You shouldnt post anymore of your weirdo conspiracy stuff. You sound like a nutcase every time you do. You should spend your time just listening to other people. You might actually learn something that is true for once.
