A long list at the link. Lots of light infantry & Special Forces. Carrier Strike Group 8. USS Bataan Expeditionary Strike Group with TWO Assault ships. No mention of the USAF assets being deployed which are surely substantial. And I'm sure an SSGN Trident or two is lurking near by.
These are substantial quick reaction forces, not to be taken lightly.

It’s not wise to give your enemy ALL the information he needs to prepare for you.
Better that much of it is kept quiet anyways.

I love how this information is coming out at night.
When Congress is not in session so the dems can stew over it all sleepless night.

LOL, there is NO WAY in hell Iran could prepare for what would be headed their way!!!
To: metmom
This is all Pentagon information.
They are not hiding this for obvious reasons.
They want Iran to know what could await them.
Deterrence.

Yup, I would not have advertised any of these logistics. The rats will scamper back to their nests waiting for us to return back to base, so to speak.

I want to know how many EOS infiltrators are operating on the MX border or in our major cities with US citizenship.
Who or what agency is in high gear for this front?
To: Mariner
For how long. Another 40 years?

We may find out.
But it would just seal the fate of their host country.

“Another 40 years?”
The strategy has changed.
I don’t anticipate a single US boot on Iranian soil. In fact, if Iran doesn’t make good on their threats, there likely won’t be any shooting at all.
But if they do, hell will rain down upon them.

Ah, not when the enemy can’t do a darn thing about it.
It’s an insane mismatch and just doesn’t matter.
Like the mother of all tank wars with Iraq

Re: your 2
Yeah, I understand and fully agree, but there really isn’t much Iran can do without any force they have doing suicide attacks.
