Hopefully Biden isn’t setting Israel up for a sucker punch by either intercepting their fighters going to Iran, or using THAAD to shoot down Jericho IRBMs. I’d be nervous if I were Israel because I trust Biden and his puppets as far as I could through them.

A demented POTUS and no Speaker of the House. Dangerous times ahead.

Two carrier battle groups and an MEU. Obama really wants a war as a cover for a complete overthrow, as an "Emergency EO."
Can't king Barry declare an unofficial war with another EO?
Good reason to "postpone the election," for the foreseeable future, until he resigns or dies, whichever comes last.

The Eisenhower is expected to be deployed for about six monthsAnd five months from now they'll get that special steak and lobster dinner before the captain comes over the 1MC to make a very important announcement.
IYKYK.

That will be a total of three at sea. The most crisis filled time I can remember and we have less than 30% of our carriers on duty. You have an ARG (amphibious ready group) in the Persian Gulf but no carrier.

We should land 30-50k Marines in Israel and have them provide backup security in the north.

A few days after Trump was elected I visited the USS Midway in San Diego.
Couldnt help but wonder if someday we'll see the USS Donald Trump aircraft carrier.

Yeah, absolutely. I was in Basic when we bombed Libya in ‘81. The TI brought in a copy of TIME with the cover story and tld us our training would be extended by a month, I think it was. Just a head game, but that’s what they do.
