Ahead of any attack on Israel by Iran and Iran proxy groups in Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, Palestine and Yemen, United States has began deploying large number of troops across bases in the Middle East. Over the past one week United States and Israel have been conducting joint warplanes training, US has also moved one of it naval carrier and hundred of warships close to Israeli waters and several US submarines are said to be deployed across the Middle East ahead of of the impending Middle East war. WASHINGTON — The U.S. is moving more troops to the Middle East to prepare for an attack by Iran on Israeli or western interests that could come very soon and without warning, two senior officials said Friday. Iran's leaders have vowed to attack Israel after an airstrike in Damascus on the Iranian embassy compound killed seven Iranians. Iran blames Israel for the attack, while Israel has not acknowledged publicly whether it conducted it. Israeli leaders, however, have warned that they will respond to any military action by Iran. Army Gen. Erik Kurilla, the commander of U.S. Central Command, has been in Israel conferring with officials there about a potential attack, according to the Defense official. On Thursday, the State Department issued a security alert for U.S. government employees in Israel. The security alert noted that incidents can take place without warning and "can change quickly depending on the political situation and recent events." Employees and their families have been restricted from personal travel outside major metropolitan areas in Israel. Also Thursday, Secretary of State Antony Blinken called his counterparts in China, Saudi Arabia and Turkey, asking other countries to "urge Iran not to escalate,” State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said. At the Pentagon, Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin conferred by phone with Israeli Defense Minister Yoav Gallant. Austin pledged that the United States would give its full "support to defend Israel against Iranian attacks," according to a readout of the call. One week ago, administration officials had said an Iranian attack was potentially imminent. When that did not happen, an attack after Ramadan had been deemed more likely. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2024/04/12/us-troops-middle-east-iran-israel-strike/73302409007/

Why will Israel run to U.S like A child run to Daddy |

MrProlific95:Actually Isreal is not running to US. Take a look at the bigger picture man. It's a bait from the west. Iran should not fall for it. It's not about the embassy that was bombed. It's about the nuclear program. There's a coordinated plan to level iranian nuclear facility If Iran attacks Isreal. Iran has more to lose than Isreal in this squabble. US would attack Iran through Isreal. Like a proxy war. 3 Likes |

Cowardly Iran will do nada. The worst they can do is to hide behind their proxy thugs (hamas, hezbollah, houthis etc), pushing Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, Yemen into unnecessary destruction. |

Ttipsy:Yes. And Russia is already occupied in Ukraine. Putin can't do anything to help Iran because of the ongoing war with Ukraine. In fact it will favour Putin if US/Isreal destroy Iranian nuclear facility because Russia would have to send another nuclear scientists to help Iran build its nuclear facility again, and it's not going to be free of course. Putin will just be watching on tv. China? China is can't do anything. China prefers to its economic progress than engaging the west in any senseless and unproductive war. Who again? Iran should just stand down. 2 Likes |

Jokay07:Even if Russia is not currently occupied in Ukraine. Russia will not assist Iran directly to confront United States in war, it has never happened before. Russia can only supply intel or military equipments to Iran, they will not go into direct conflict with United States. From history all invasion or wars between United States against Russian allies, Russia has never gone ahead to confront United States directly in the battle field in support of their allies. 1 Like |

AllTheWayUp:in as much as Putin may want to support Iran. It will not be with the current cause of war because Iran’s contribution to Worlds Terrorism is unwavering I do not think china will as well support Iran |

Ttipsy:Yes China doesn't get involved and will never get involved in wars as a 3rd party. If Iran finally plays into Israel and United States trap by striking Isreal with support of its sponsored proxy terrorists groups acrosss Yemen, Iraq, Lebanon and Syria then Iran will be turned to rumbles in less than 1 month similar to what United States did to Iraq some year back and Israel is doing to Palestine. 1 Like |
