US tells 2,000 troops to be prepared to DEPLOY to the Middle East as second aircraft carrier is moved to the Mediterranean and Israel's ground invasion of Gaza nears
I love when the US helps to deescalate a situation! I'm sure no US troops will be hit by any strikes to justify direct US intervention in this conflict.
The US is going to push us straight into a world war with their mismanagement of this conflict.
When talking about the US, it's more often correct to assume malice rather than incompetence
Absolutely right
However the US government has plenty of both!
