Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system
Idrees Ali and Phil Stewart – Reuters Oct 22, 2023
The U.S. will send a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) system and additional Patriot air defense missile system battalions to the Middle East, the Pentagon said on Saturday, in response to recent attacks on U.S. troops in the region.
The United States has sent a significant amount of naval power to the Middle East in recent weeks, including two aircraft carriers, their support ships and about 2,000 Marines.
Washington is on heightened alert for activity by Iran-backed groups as regional tensions soar during the Israel-Hamas war.
“Following detailed discussions with President (Joe) Biden on recent escalations by Iran and its proxy forces across the Middle East Region, today I directed a series of additional steps to further strengthen the Department of Defense posture in the region,” Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin said in a statement.
Austin said he was placing additional troops on prepare-to-deploy orders, but did not say how many. The Pentagon has already placed some 2,000 troops on a heightened state of readiness in case they need to deploy to the region.
“These steps will bolster regional deterrence efforts, increase force protection for U.S. forces in the region, and assist in the defense of Israel,” Austin added.
The deployments come two years after Biden’s administration withdrew air defense systems from the Middle East, citing a reduction in tensions with Iran.
The Patriot, considered one of the most advanced U.S. air defense systems, is usually in short supply, with allies around the world vying for it.
The THAAD system has a powerful radar. U.S. deployment of the system to South Korea in 2016 angered China, which believed it could peer into its airspace.
There has been a spike in attacks against U.S. forces in Iraq and Syria since the conflict between Israel and Hamas militants in Gaza broke out. Last week, a U.S. warship shot down more than a dozen drones and four cruise missiles fired by Iranian-backed Houthis from Yemen.
Israel started its “total siege” of Gaza after an Oct. 7 cross-border attack on southern Israel by militants of the Islamist movement killed 1,400 people, mainly civilians, in a shock rampage that has traumatized Israel.
Gaza’s Health Ministry said on Saturday that Israel’s air and missile strikes had killed at least 4,385 Palestinians, including hundreds of children, with more than a million of the tiny territory’s 2.3 million people displaced.
Obviously the Jews are planning an expansion of this war. They’re slowly setting the stage for a US/Israel/UK match up vs. Russia/Iran/China. Of course its all staged & rigged, since both ‘sides’ are covertly governed by the same clique of Semitic oligarchs/rabbis/bankers. Millions of white dum dums though, will be asked/forced to sacrifice themselves again for Jewish geopolitical/religious objectives & Whiteocide.
Quote: “Israel started its “total siege” of Gaza after an Oct. 7 cross-border attack on southern Israel…”
There is no border! There was only prison walls, fences and AI towers! So get that right first. Secondly Reuters is afraid of saying Israel killed its reporter, so it is a crappy source of information. Also the total siege did not start on 7th it goes way back!
US got the message that they should restrain Netanyahoo otherwise they have to face problems all over the region. Furthermore as Scott Ritter said, 2000 marines won’t have any impact on the theater.

It’s high time for the time of Ba’al, and the Jews to end.
All of you howling dogs “standing” fer Isrul, are going to be eliminated in one day.
You have been terminally deceived. You have been under a delusional lie for 2700 years.
You didn’t seem to hear what was plainly said to you.
“Luke 4:6
And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.”
You don’t seem to hear well at all. “for that is delivered unto me;”
means he, Ba’al, is/was given the world to do what he wants, BY SOMEONE ELSE!
He has deceived the whole world about who the God of this world is! And that time is at an end.
Think there is no God? Think again.
Yahwey, the boss, is coming down to YOU.
