http://news.yahoo.com/pentagon-orde...-163630548.html;_ylt=AwrBEiKPepxTQnkAbcXQtDMD Seems we are ramping up for another war. When are we going to learn? Yes what the Iraqi people need to deal with is more people fighting in their country. Ironic the name of the carrier as well....
LOL well at least George H had a reason for being there. But to your main point. I dont see this as the US reengaging in the war. The rebels dont appear to have any backing from other nations close by. So I think right now, containment is the plan. Give Iraq time to regroup, then see what options are on the table
I think this will be us giving them some air support, I do not see Obama being as stupid as Bush and turning this into another ten year war
The Air Carrier is to send them bombs by air, our soldiers won't be at risk Iraq doesn't have any air defense so its okay.
This is a photo oportunity for George W Bush to fly in, lead a ground assault and again pronounce mission accomplished on the deck of carrier George W Bush. Deja Vu?
400 US surface-to-air missiles were 'STOLEN' from Libya during the Benghazi attack and are 'now in the hands of Al Qaeda', claims whistleblower. If one of those missing 400 SAM's brings down a U.S. Air Force plane will, Ya'all say "oh that's OK, Obama tried"?
Well, it was time: it's odd to hear about the Gulf Sea without a US carrier [at least a little one!] And the unit, with that name, I agree, it's "fantastic" in this context. Humor a part, it's clear that because of geopolitical interests the US cannot show weakness in this moment with their "new allies" [the Iraqi government is a US ally, isn't it?]. Anyway I agree with whom underlines that it will be only about giving air support. If Obama is not influenced by the name of the carrier ...
