Report: U.S. carrier sent to Syrian coast as tensions flare

reply to post by Jakes51


Given the sensativities in some arab countries with regards to females, especially US military females I found it fitting that the USS Bush was detailed for this task.

Battle Force 2 (Bush carrier group) is comprised of the USS Bush and 11 supporting vessels (crusiers / destroyers and frigates - I am assuming submarines as well but they dont talk about their deployments.

Task force 2 is under the command of Rear Admiral Nora Tyson. She has one hell of an impressive service record.

But if an American mentioned that then most Europeans here at ATS would come unglued in their attempts to down play the role the US played in keeping the peace all these decades since the end of WWII!

Go figure

By keeping peace you mean fighting more wars than any other country on earth?

Try reading what I posted again. In other threads you have claimed that Russia has supplied Syria with chemical and nuclear weapons.

I am asking you for your source.

That is rather odd with the name of the main vessel being Bush and a female commander operating in the Middle East. However, I think it is nothing more than a coincidence. Don't know much about the battle group commander? One has to be the best of the best to command all that firepower and manpower. On a personal note, you could not pay me enough to be in charge of that. That is just me though. Hats off to anyone who is willing to take on such an immense responsibility. Running a battle group is no cake walk. Thanks for the reply!

Exactly, it seems that if Europe turned into the most patriotic countries into one of the socialist unpatrioctic states in the earth. They not superpower anymore so ya. We had been used in many ways.

I hope neither of us in our lifetimes will ever have to test that scenario out.

The stage is being set for a major conflict in the region, one that would provide a massive stimulus to the US/EU economies

how is that ? war costs money, doesnt it ?

edit on 24-11-2011 by icepack because: (no reason given)

War is also the best thing to restart an economy because it bring manufacturing home. Every time a bullet is fired, a missile launched or a tank destroyed, they need 100 more to replace it...this is how you stimulate an economy! This has already happened twice in the past 100 years!

AND NOW LADIES AND GENTLEMEN... WE INTRODUCE YOU TO: REX 84 / PATRIOT ACT/ FEMA MANAGEMENT ENACTMENT via D.H.S. and PRESIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE ORDER.

So, everybody excited about the prospects of an upcoming career in military armaments manufacturing? Think again... Think UNICOR!

Think about it people... think real hard. Why are they bringing the troops home? to protect us from Al-Queda infiltration? heh... remember all those videos about special military detention personnel jobs?

AMERICA IS BROKE lol... What's about to happen is voluntary labor, without compensation. Refuse, you'll be in violation of conditions found bound within the language of the Patriot ACT (or Domestic Enhancement Security ACT spin off legislation) that will make you a combative person that threatens the sovereignty of the U.S. of A., thus now labeled as a terrorist, stripped of your citizenship, and now housed in a recently activated UNICOR run FEMA FACTORY... and you'll STILL be making bullets from depleted uranium, under sub OSHA standards I guarantee it...

BE PREPARED AMERICA... There's a good chance the move is about to be made!

Well I am hoping for it.Enables us full command of the northern zone methane hydrate reserves and we only have tech to commercially harness methane hydrate... 5000 trillion tons of methane in methane hydrates.

And Gazprom controlling that methane hydrate

So... I guess the U.S. just discovered where all the missing suitcase nukes disappeared to, huh?....

reply to post by USAisdevil


OK so...

Your member name is USAisdevil yet you're the one advocating Russia does the following...

1. A nuclear Holocaust which will result in hundreds of millions killed..

and

2. A conquest of the Northern Hemisphere by force for economic dominance over it's natural resources which will costs the lives of millions more.

You should have chosen "I'mthedevil" instead.

reply to post by Heyyo_yoyo

as if I care...

The ends justify the means. Russia is the means to a global slavonic rule command.

WTF??
We're supposed to be having dinner on that carrier this weekend !
Is this report reliable? We got another confirmation a few days ago!
I just bought a new skirt for that dinner..... if this is legit, I am going to be pissed.

After thinking about it, it is still possible that it is going to be getting over here in time- the article doesn't say anything about it staying there only that it was seen there.

Why wouldn't the same rules apply to entitlements as to war as far as the dollar making its trip?

Although the entitlements money does go into the economy, it does not directly generate revenue for the government. Except in some very rare instances, entitlements are not taxed, and governments primarily generate revenue from taxes and tariffs,

Have they entered Syrian territorial waters, if so I believe thats an act of war.

Actually, no, for it to be an act of war, we would have to actually attack something.

If we have entered their territorial waters, without permission, then it is an act of military aggression. .
