Ping
It’s beyond me why any movement of our ships, planes, troops is posted in open source (any open source).
Just saying...
Okay, I really don’t understand why everyone is moving now.
Israel has taken bigger and more frequent hits than she is right now. What’s going on?
Ok this is actually quite serious. First of all, the Russians have 3 ships to the north at the Syrian port. Its something to consider.
Second, Israel is going to put the hurt on in Gaza.
Clearly, these ships are there as a deterrent to prevent Hezbullah from opening up a second front while Israel mops up Hamas in Gaza. But, Iran may have no choice. We (US, Israel, NATO to a degree) are going to systematically remove Iran’s chips from the ches board.
Israel is going to wipe out Hamas. In return, Iran almost has to activate Hezbullah to open fire. That is when the US will be ready to pound them, or Israel will pound them. If not, then Iran loses Hamas and is left only with Hezbullah, who will get pounded later.
The wildcard is Russia. But if we (or Israel) are on the road to attack Iran in the next year or two or 3, we/they need to remove Hamas and Hezbullah first so that they cannot open up new fronts in the war against Islamic terrorists and their supporters.
AS usual Nutjawb and his terrorist cronies get very very silent right now, lots of terrorists walking around with umbrellas and hiding in basements of schools as usual.
whoa!
Let’s hope the Cole get’s the first shot.
USS Nashville (LPD-13), In July 2006, she was sent to Lebanon as part of the Iwo Jima Expeditionary Strike Group transporting the 24th MEU to assist with the evacuation of U.S. nationals from the country, after a conflict erupted between the Israeli military and Hezbollah militants. On July 20, 2006, it landed the first Marines on Lebanese soil since 1984

USS Albany and that would be SSN-753 sneaky LA class.
God Bless them all and GO NAVY!
