It's a significant event

 


US to send anti-missile system 

and troops to Israel, Pentagon says

October 13, 20244:00 PM CDT


So of course it comes out at 4 PM on a Sunday right?

Seein how this works?



A Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) interceptor is launched from the Pacific Spaceport Complex Alaska during Flight Experiment THAAD (FET)-01 in Kodiak, Alaska, U.S. on July 30, 2017

"WASHINGTON, Oct 13 (Reuters) - The United States said on Sunday it will send U.S. troops to Israel along with an advanced U.S. anti-missile system, in a highly unusual deployment meant to bolster the country's air defenses following missile attacks by Iran."

("Highly unusual deployment"
Well I wonder why that is?
Kinda explains why its released at 4 pm on a Sunday dont ya think?)


U.S. President Joe Biden said the move was meant "to defend Israel," which is weighing an expected retaliation against Iran after Tehran fired more than 180 missiles at Israel on Oct 1."

(And that why it is significant, for the very first time since the Hamas attack Oct 7th of last year, we are not getting the "to protect our troops and our assets in the area" crock of shit we have been force fed. Now it's "to defend Israel", with the troops needed to run the system.)


"The United States has been privately urging Israel to calibrate its response to avoid triggering a broader war in the Middle East, officials say, with Biden publicly voicing his opposition to an Israeli attack on Iran's nuclear sites and his concerns about a strike on Iran's energy infrastructure."

(Well a lot of good its been doing everybody. 
Since Oct 7th of last year lets see:
Yemen
Iraq
Syria
Lebanon
and 
Iran have all been caught up in this
"Non-escalatory spiral.
See the next piece that follows for more information on that.)


Pentagon spokesperson Major General Patrick Ryder described the deployment as part of "the broader adjustments the U.S. military has made in recent months" to support Israel and defend U.S. personnel from attacks by Iran and Iranian-backed groups.

(Yeah, right, that's why you need a squadron of F-22's, seafaring fighter jets now on land bases ect.)


"But a U.S. military deployment to Israel is rare outside of drills..."

(So why are they doing it then Reuters? Huh?)



"U.S. troops in recent months have aided Israel's defense from warships and fighter jets in the Middle East when it came under Iranian attack.

But they were based outside of Israel."

(Again, goes to why this is significant.)


"A THAAD battery usually requires about 100 troops to operate. It counts six truck mounted launchers, with eight interceptors on each launcher, and a powerful radar."


(Thats 48 interceptors.

Iran has over 3000 ballistic missiles.

Seein the issue yet?


Like the patriot missile system?

This is designed to protect an area

(command and control etc)

Not a country)


"Iran's Foreign Minister Abbas Araqchi warned earlier on Sunday that the United States was putting the lives of its troops "at risk by deploying them to operate U.S. missile systems in Israel."

"While we have made tremendous efforts in recent days to contain an all-out war in our region, I say it clearly that we have no red lines in defending our people and interests," Araqchi posted on X."


"Still, experts say Iran has sought to avoid a direct war with the United States, making deployment of U.S. forces to Israel another factor in its calculus going forward."


(Hey all you "experts", yeah, all yawl that have mostly been wrong about everything post Covid, listen up, the calculus you are refering to has already been done:

"I say it clearly that we have no red lines in defending our people and interests...")


"Lockheed Martin, the biggest U.S. arms maker, builds and integrates the THAAD system, which is designed to shoot down short-, medium- and intermediate-range ballistic missiles. Raytheon, under RTX, builds its advanced radar."


(Well lord knows everybody 

gotta get a piece of the pie right?

Lockhead, Raytheon...)




Is Biden administration seeking de-escalation – or driving Middle East war?

"As Washington calls for a regional ceasefire, it continues to provide political and military support for Israel. Is the expanding war failed diplomacy — or what the US really wants?"


OCT 9th.

"...Duplicitous..."

September 26, 2024


Its a long article and a good read 

but all you really have to ask yourself is this:


"WHATS OUR TRACK RECORD SHOW?"

Bayesian probability and all...




Meanwhile last Wednesday

in our latest attempts at Non-escalation:


US F-15s arrive in Middle East as Israel preps Iran retaliation

A new squadron of US F-15s arrived at an undisclosed base in the region this week as Washington works to stop Israel from escalating the fighting in a counterattack on Iran.

(It's already escalated dipshits, this regurgitation of the propaganda narrative is just asinine at this point.)


"The F-15s arrived at an undisclosed base in the region on Wednesday, US Central Command said. They join additional US F-16s that arrived earlier this month, bolstering US fighter squadrons already in the region including highly advanced stealth F-22 Raptors."

(The F-22's give it away what were about to be doing.)

"the aircraft was designed as an air superiority fighter, but also incorporates ground attack, electronic warfare, and signals intelligence capabilities."

We sure gotta funny way of not escalating shit

Anybody else ever noticed?)


"The United States also has several mid-air refueling tankers based in the region as well as an aircraft carrier, the USS Abraham Lincoln, in the Gulf of Oman within striking distance of Iran and Yemen.

Several US Navy destroyers are also in the Red Sea and in the Mediterranean, where an amphibious-borne Marine Expeditionary Unit remains ready..."


(No mention of the USS Georgia?

Also in the area

I wonder why?)


"Pentagon officials have refused to publicly rule out US military participation in the Israeli strikes."

(Tells you all you need to know.)


"Netanyahu and Biden broke nearly two months of silence in a roughly 30-minute phone call on Wednesday. The White House readout of the call made no mention of the Biden administration's previous initiative alongside France to push for a cease-fire in Lebanon."

(Because the world knows it was all a show to begin with.)


"The US administration appears to have abandoned its previous calls for a 21-day cease-fire in Lebanon over the past week after Netanyahu rebuffed the request during the UN General Assembly summit in New York."

(See above about a show.)
