US boosts forces in Middle East following Iran attacks in NE Syria
|
[NPASyria] In response to a spate of attacks on the US bases deployed in Syria by Iranian-backed militias, the US announced on Friday boosting its military forces in the Middle East.
Pentagon front man Lt. Col. Phil Ventura revealed that a squadron of A-10 attack aircraft are deploying to the region ahead of a scheduled deployment following the attacks in Syria.
The US ordered a carrier strike group to remain in the region to support US forces in Central Command, which covers the Middle East, and a squadron of A-10 attack aircraft to the region, Ventura said.
"We are committed to supporting the defeat-ISIS mission alongside a global coalition in Syria and prepared to respond to a range of contingencies in the Middle East if needed," Ventura said in a statement.
He said that the George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group will remain in the Mediterranean Sea under US European Command, but it will support US forces in the Middle East in the event of contingency plans and operations.
"These actions demonstrate the United States’ ability to rapidly reposition forces across the globe and underscores that all necessary measures will be taken to defend U.S. forces," Ventura said.
On March 23, a US contractor was killed, and five other service members and another contractor were maimed when a suspected Iranian drone struck a facility on a base of the US-led Global Coalition in northeast Syria, the Pentagon said.
In response, the US Central Command attacked with "precision Arclight airstrike

"Iran
...a theocratic Shiite state divided among the Medes, the Persians, and the (Arab) Elamites. Formerly a fairly civilized nation ruled by a Shah, it became a victim of Islamic revolution in 1979. The nation is today noted for spontaneously taking over other countries' embassies, maintaining whorehouses run by clergymen, involvement in international drug trafficking, and financing sock puppet militias to extend the regime's influence. The word Iran is a cognate form of Aryan. The abbreviation IRGC is the same idea as Stürmabteilung (or SA). The term Supreme Guide is a the modern version form of either Duce or Führer or maybe both.
