I hope he does too. Probably the safest place in the middle east.

Something else is going on...

Upon hearing about all the defense cuts, they've decided to defect!

nonsense

Any nukes dropped on israel while substantial US military is there would be an instant “no holds barred” total annihilation bombing campaign of Iran in which all of europe and nato would participate without regard to any objections from any UN members. The world would get to see just what american aggression without any restraints will look like(anything less would probably get obama murdered).

The turds in iran know it too.

Obama’s way to win in 2012.

Obama’s way to recover the Jewish vote.

October is a long way off. I highly doubt Bibi does not know what he is up to. Perhaps it is the “usie” using the “user” to his own advantage. barry would be too stupid to see it coming.

Bibi could be our blessing. The rats are, after all, the party of unintended consequences.

Wishful thinking, IMO.

The cowards would almost certainly never agree to nuke Iran if Iran nukes Israel, and although there may be conventional attacks on Iran, the goal of crippling a significant portion of our military would still be accomplished (not Iran's goal, but the goal of those working to destroy our Representative Republic), and Iran would achieve its primary goal of destroying Israel, consequences be damned.

I base my nonsense on the current mindset of the west's “leaders”, including the mindset of the lunatics in the Middle East.

Yeah, highly unlikely, but still plausible, IMO.

There have been news stories and threads on this all last week.

It’s legit this time.

Debka is unreliable, but other sources say there is US activity in Israel.

Zero may try to start a war with Iran to gain reelection, but it didn't work for LBJ.

Odd, nothing on the DoD, U.s. Navy, USMC, or U.S. Army websites about this.

Enter this in google and mash the search button:

"Austere Challenge" site:.mil

716 results, some about the 2012 exercise

What does Bible Prophecy say about the “kings of the North?
Our Nation has a political habit of putting our Military as targets in harms way.IF they act like the Baby Blue UN troops they probably represent they will probably do Nothing to stop or curb the Islamic Terrorism in Israel. question is who will
command them and will they be ordered to illegally alter their BDU as happened when the Army still had Michael G.New on its rolls.

As silly as this sounds, it would fit perfectly into the plans of those who are determined to destroy our Representative Republic.

Waggy the Doggy???

The US military generals appear to be nothing more than stooges for this traitor. Oh that’s right, my bad. He can’t be called a traitor since he’s failed to prove his citizenship to the US. Let’s say fraudulent POS instead.

DEBKKA prints a lot of rumors and calls it news. If we are putting 9000 US troops there, they are in the bullseye of the Iranian A-bomb and would be in great danger. If we were really wanting to intimidate Iran, US troops in Israel are just too far away to deploy to Iran. I’d use fleet Marines stationed on ships or do the deployment in a friendly Gulf state. Obama is unlikely to do anything to provoke Iran as he has ignored every bad thing Iran has done for the past 2+ years.

While most are pondering a wag the dog scenario, allies against iran, or simply a planned exercise, I can’t help but wonder. Could this be setting up possible enforcement of pre-67 borders?

I’m wondering about that too. I didn’t know until recently that Israel has a four tier missile defense system and an US military operated X band radar system on their soil.

Nope, Obama would say, I’m sorry and kiss their Muslim as$es. Then dance on the graves of dead U.S. soldiers.
