More US Marines and warships are being deployed to the Middle East, two officials confirmed to CBS News, the BBC’s US partner.
The officials said the reinforcements were to come from an amphibious ready group and its Marine expeditionary unit, with one official adding that the group would be led by the Japan-based USS Tripoli, an amphibious assault ship.
The unit headed by the USS Tripoli typically consists of around 5,000 sailors and Marines distributed across several warships.
The development comes as Donald Trump said US forces had “totally obliterated” Iranian military infrastructure on Kharg Island in the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway for global oil shipping.
The populate vote doesn’t technically matter; but it still matters. Moreover, spreading the crap that the parties are the same, stressing that the dem candidate was just as bad on some issue, that her laugh was annoying - all that matters.
I like that she does laugh.
Correct, Republican and Republican-lite aren’t the same, and if you’re in a purple state, you might have to hold your nose while you vote, but not all states are purple, and even then some would still rather vote for something that allies more with their principles.
