U.S. sending missile system and another warship to Middle East amid Iran tensions

The United States is deploying a Patriot missile battery and another warship to the Middle East to counter what it claims are growing threats from Iran.

"The United States does not seek conflict with Iran, but we are postured and ready to defend U.S. forces and interests in the region,"National Security Adviser John Bolton said last Sunday that the U.S. was sending a carrier strike group and a bomber task force to the region to send a"clear and unmistakable message" to Tehran. The Pentagon said the latest deployment followed that original request.

Saber rattling by a criminal administration to distract from the constitutional crisis here in America.

Maybe the traitor and hero of the left John Kerry can fix it

MSNBC is probably is taking Iran side.

Thank God every day that we have President Trump at the helm! Can you imagine Hillary, she would be siphoning money sending money and doing every other evil crooked thing! Again, Thank God Trump is in office

Is this a message to Iran or North Korea?

What’s going on? Ignoring intelligence and going of half cocked or legitimate need for US intervention? We don’t need another Dessert Storm, Dick Cheney Oil Grab, Afghanistan terrorist provocation when or NATO allies aren’t standing with us?

How much is this Bolton and Trumps agenda? Isn't that sad you can't even trust the president! ImpeachDonaldTrump

Because of John Kerry's clear violation of the law.

Why Trump has said “I AND I ALONE CAN FIX THIS SOOOOOOO WHAT HAPPEN”

Americas strength is back!! Gone is the 'apology' tour!!

Trump has intentionally & continuously aggravated this situation since being sworn in. Iran is expressing their displeasure at being intentionally & continuously aggravated which, according to Trump logic sic, makes *them* the problem... Nothing distracts the masses like war.

Just not good and insane!

WMD Iraq War architect Bolton in action.

What it says¿

Amazing how Obama and Biden believed Iran was to be trusted. Guess that’s what happens when your totally naive.

Draft and body bag for our youth appear in the near future. Mainac in charge.

Don’t you see what Trump is doing? Starting a war to remain President. This is obvious.

Donald Trump falsely claims there is a crisis Donald pretends to solve imaginary crisis Donald brags about resolving crisis that never existed

War ships heading to SCS and the Mediteranean? You better believe that the people in Trumps orbit have informed him that no president has ever been voted out of office while the country was at war.

Wants to feel power...distract from the reality of home and get our country in a real bind! Get him out; we don’t need two more years to blow our country up.

Donald Trump falsely claim there is a crisis Pretend to solve imaginary crisis Brag about resolving crisis that never existed

When nothing happens trump will say he stopped a war.

Wag the dog

A missile ship sitting in the water doesn't do anything....

Fake

WagTheDog

TrumpsDistraction PutinsPuppet

US are the ones who are the aggressors and start all the wars Time the world starts reeling them in o

Same old BS from the GOP. Just like the weapons of mass destruction lie.

Awwww are the leftists upset that Trump will bring down our enemy that Obama built up 😁😁

Let's be truthful. Is Iran really a threat to the American homeland ? Iran is half a world away from the USA.

It will be really telling to see which countries sign up to be allies for Trump and Bolton in this inevitable war with Iran. My guess is not many.

As impeachment hearings start Donald will start a war to distract. Can we charge him with murder for every soldier we lose. Because this is on him.

Trump is threatening Iran for a war. The republicans love a war so they can launder money.

What a shame Barry gave all that money to IRAN so they could weaponize and build nuclear weapons.. No worries, Trump will take care of their a***s...

Betcha if Iran tries to capture another group of Navy sailors they will get blown out of the water!!

JoanPennnative I saw a breaking news blip late last night from the NYTs or WaPo about the Pentagon ginning up Iran's 'escalation' in order to justify sending in US military, but can't find it anywhere now. And now this. I guess quashing news stories is the next step in every banana republic.

Stop fucking starting wars 🇺🇸🤷🏼‍♂️

The media should focus on the threat from Iran instead Fuking around with reporting on stupid subpoenas👎🤡’s SUPPORT OUR COUNTRY 🇺🇸

'Wag The Dog': a 90's black comedy where two Presidential advisors started a war to distract the American public from their own President's sex scandal. The ramp-up to war with Iran/Venezuela, et al, sounds suspiciously familiar, doesn't it? 🙄

Trump and his minions had something to do with this. I think he is looking for a way to get re-elected.

The (evil) Art of Distraction

This is a pissing contest Iran will not win. God bless the USA.

weapons of mass distraction

Hard sell this time around. Heard similar rhetoric before Iraq invasion and all turned out criminal lies and sheepish confessions.

Bullshit. Total bullshit. There is no threat. This is a diversion folks. Pay no attention to the criminal President, watch the pretty ships over there.

Trump is starting a war in the middle east and a trade war with China

Leave the Democrats Terrorist Friends alone!!!

Good. Thank you.

There is no threat coming from the Middle East. This is all a made up story to deflect attention.

Ugh

Trump getting more and more desperate and could very easily create a “Wag the Dog War”, to distract America.

Ah, what you mean is trump is pushing harder to start a war and you are not going to do proper journalism.

Wag the dog.

Gosh, if we had only made a deal with Iran and the major nuclear countries back in 2015. Once again Trump broke something and now it's a crisis to fix it.

And Lefty types everywhere scream at clouds because they are supporters of Iran...

Sounds like a growing threat from the US. Anyhow I don't expect this admin to use diplomacy. Trump's start a fire and claim victory for trying to put out that fire strategy leads to war. War that the coward dodged the draft to avoid.

AOC: 'Why do missiles need batteries?'

Another Iraq in the making.

It’s all complete bullshit

We want no part of this! You're on your own.

A waste of taxpayers money. If I was in the Navy I would break down mechanically and be lost at sea until this evil Trump and Pence are out whether they are doing evil knowingly or unknowingly we are at out last stand dont be in the land of the lost cause alot of danger will come

WagTheDog

BS. Bolan has free reign and Spanky only cares about reelection . So obvious

More fireworks for the Trump 4th...

found more imaginary WMDs? Or do you not care for a casus belli anymore and just start another war... its what you love so much, isnt it?

Another manufactured crisis, brought to you by the Trump crime syndicate.

Making it worse in my opinion

Bolton war begins

Not good.

The ship was scheduled to go months ago. Not new.
