'US deploys troops in Israel for Iran war'


www.presstv.com

The US military is preparing a massive military campaign against Iran, sending thousands of American troops, warships and weaponry to Israel.


An unnamed source said the military deployment of US anti-missile ships and accompanying support personnel will occur in January and later this spring, Global Research reported.

Commander of the US Third Air Force based in Germany Lt.-Gen Frank Gorenc said it is not just an "exercise," but a "deployment," The Jerusalem Post said.

Washington and Tel Aviv have planned to hold what they call the largest-ever joint military exercise this sprin

Poke the bear a little more....

Are the powers that be not going to be satisfied until all heck breaks loose?

Hasn't Isreal already told us that they don't need the USA to help them?

This is getting a little ridiculous if you ask me!

Oil, power, greed...I am so tired of this, let's put the powers that be in a cage match and let them duke it out, save thousands if not millions of lives.

Israel may say that they can go this alone but the US knows that if they don't have their noses in there, they don't get to the payday.

Attack, Destroy, Kill, Steal, Rebuild....Get Paid.

All in the name of peace of course.

Well, from the looks of it the US military is sending thousands of troops and high tech equipment to Israel for some missile drills but does that mean its war? I wouldn't be so hasty. Is the west gearing up for a possible war with Iran? Absolutely, they're blood drunk but at the moment both Iran and the west are just flexing their muscles.


Does This US And Israel Joint Missile Defense Drill Say Anything About Plans For Iran?


www.businessinsider.com...

Israel just announced it has finalized a deal with Lt. General Frank Gorenc, commander of the US Third Air Force in Germany, that will bring several thousand U.S. troops and two advanced missile systems to the country for an unprecedented defense drill.

US commander visits Israel to finalize missile drill


www.jpost.com...


Israel is moving forward with plans to hold the largest-ever missile defense exercise in its history this spring amid Iranian efforts to obtain nuclear weapons.

Last week, Lt.-Gen. Frank Gorenc, commander of the US’s Third Air Force based in Germany, visited Israel to finalize plans for the upcoming drill, expected to see the deployment of several thousand American soldiers in Israel.

I'm skeptical, but you never do know what is going to happen. We'll find out in a few weeks I guess.

If this was true why would they mass in Israel within range of Iran's missiles / Hezbollah's rockets?

Exactly what purpose do US forces in Israel serve in a war with Iran? It is not as if Israel has any kind of a border with Iran. Even if Iran were to lob some missiles, the presence of US forces can only mean US casualities.

If this is a deployment, it can mean one of two things.

1. US expects some soon to be taken decision to have a severe backlash in Israel and is deploying its forces to secure US persons in Israel. This is unlikely, but not impossible.

2. US is actually setting up these forces to be attacked and die, so as to invent an excuse for US directly attacking Iran. This, of course, could happen in one of several ways. Hezbolla or Hamas lobs some missiles into Israel and a couple of US soldiers die. Since they are "linked" to Iran, US declares war against Iran. But this sounds silly, although not beyond the US and Americans. The likely possibility is that Israel attacks Iran's nuclear installations, Iran retaliates with missiles into Israel, a few US troops die and US declares a war against Iran.

ETA: I just read the complete news item and apparently they are deploying missiles in Israel, so yes, they could be for the purpose of launching attacks on Iran without even a pretext of being attacked first. This could be plan B, should they believe the navy might sustain unacceptable losses in an attack against Iran. The plan might be to simply shower missiles against Iran from Israel and in the worst case scenario Iran will retaliate against Israel, which risk always existed.

I know the headline is taken directly from the article, but there isn't any support for anything other than "US deploys troops in Israel."

My guess is that it's a tit-for-tat for Iran's recent naval exercise and threat to close down the Straits.

There aint gonna be no mistake. The first shot will be on purpose, like loading snowballs with rocks and then throwing it at someone's face.
