Along with the Ford the U.S. is sending the cruiser USS Normandy, destroyers USS Thomas Hudner, USS Ramage, USS Carney, and USS Roosevelt and the U.S. is augmenting Air Force F-35, F-15, F-16, and A-10 fighter aircraft squadrons in the region.

“The U.S. maintains ready forces globally to further reinforce this deterrence posture if required,” Austin said in a statement.

In addition, the Biden administration “will be rapidly providing the Israel Defense Forces with additional equipment and resources, including munitions. The first security assistance will begin moving today and arriving in the coming days,” Austin said.

The Norfolk, Virginia-based carrier strike group( was already in the Mediterranean. Last week it was conducting naval exercises with Italy in the Ionian Sea. It’s the United States newest and most advanced aircraft carrier and this is its first full deployment.

Did that flight originate from the UAE? When the fluster cuck was occurring at the Kabul Airport, I was tracking flights and the Moose call sign was used. Those flight originated in UAE. This may indicate silent support from the UAE. I don’t know the specifics of the use of their airspace or whether we have an open agreement to come and go. Additionally, it looks like the transponder was turned off for most of the flight in the image you posted. I wonder what other countries gave permission to use their airspace.

Americans have been slaughtered and taken hostage in this war as well.

Do a Google Search on Neocon

all that comes up are pictures of Putin, Xi, little Kim, Iranian mullahs, and Hamas-Hezbollah "leaders"

We just have to be involved.

Iran backed militia in Iraq are threatening to take out every American they can find if we get invo!ved.

Biden sends 75 million to Hamas and wants to support Israel?

Makes me wonder if we were the impetus for this entire tragedy.

WTH is going on now?

Sorry, you'de probably need a WEF program sheet to figure that out. All I can say is that for myself; Israel should utterly destroy Hamas in the Gaza Strip and forcefully relocate all Palestinians to the West Bank. Annex and bulldoze the former Gaza Strip and use it for new Israeli settlements. While this is going on they need to prepare for a massive attack against Iran to destroy their long range military assets. Good start. Nuff said.

I think so too.

Biden just wants to look important to the world.

It probably is mostly because of the reported American hostages held by Hamas.

What? They're not going to abandon them like the democrats have a history of doing?

Exactly.

MIC back in the saddle.

With those videos out there, US support will be huge.

I am interested in opinions but I am worried about Iranian nukes or rouge Pakistani nukes.

"I suspect now they’re going to have the war they’ve been salivating for.....”secretly” fund and weaponize the enemy, then go after them to get that war machine going again and try and look like the good guys."

Sadly I've come to conclude that this is true on many levels. This has become a giant war machine scam carried out on an international level by shady NGOs and intelligence community actors. Is there any difference at this point? These "NGOs" have become little more than thinly veiled cutouts for the Deep State.

That’s what they should have done in 1973.
