Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has ordered a limited number of U.S. troops to prepare for deployment in support of Israel, as reported by multiple sources.
Approximately 2,000 troops have been selected to be on standby for advisory and medical assistance.
The troops will be drawn from various branches of the U.S. military, including those already stationed in the Middle East and nearby Europe.
While their specific units and deployment locations have not been disclosed, it has been emphasized that they will not have a combat role.
The U.S. is extending support to Israel, which is engaged in a conflict with Hamas, primarily focusing on intelligence and planning assistance for potential hostage rescue operations.
Unfortunately Israel is the only “western aligned” middle east country, so for that reason we go all watermelon eating contest on their bhole
is that really why ? I’ve been wondering
We don’t have universal health care in America and it’s their fault but we pay for them to have universal health care. So no, they’re not our ally, we’re vassals.
It’s Israel’s fault that there’s no universal health care in the US? How?
AIPAC funnels money to anti-UHC candidates like Shontel Brown despite the reality that the american taxpayer funds Israeli UHC.
Gee I wonder why Israel is the only Western aligned middle east country it’s almost like they do a genocide and the West sends aircraft carriers to protect them
