Israel has never before asked for US troops.

I am skeptical.

Last I checked Sharm el Sheikh is on the other end of Sinai from Gaza. Unless us troops were to deploy to Israeli territory there isn’t much of a mission for the US troops (except to get shot at by Hamas).

US troops have been in Sinai supposedly to prevent violations of the peace, since the 1970’s. It seems they just weren’t doing the job adequately is all, to allow the reported 10,000+ missiles into terrorist hands on Isr’s borders?

If it’s true, color me furious.

If it’s not true, color Debka even more of an idiot-stick publication.

US troops have been in the Sinai for decades. DH served there for six months back in the 90’s and I still have the t-shirt. MFO (Multi-National Force Observers) is the official name but the US runs the operation. The ROE’s are stupid, you have to be shot at and hit before you can return fire. If Israel and Egypt ever get into it those guys will be the first casualties. They are a flipping speed bump. Albet a very nasty speed bump with major teeth.

The NC National Guard is deploying there...they left last month to train up at Camp Atterbury. One of husband’s former soldiers was going.

But remember;

They can't fight nor shoot to kill.

Nor breathe incorrectly, pick their nose, speak unkindly about the enemy, forbidden to identify an enemy, ..
We know zero hates America and in part that's because our American military is the toughest and best and in order for him to pull off a coup, the military must be neutered.

THAT cat's out of the bag with the murders of Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty.

This is true. My nephew has had orders for the Sinai for a month. He goes there soon. In the NC Reserves. As Peace Keepers. God be with them.
