Anyone want to guess why we have soldiers who are getting orders
to be deployed to Lebanon soon? I think the US is going to be a BIG part of any multi-national peacekeeping force. Further footholds for the eventual invasion of Iran?

1. Is it a fact orders are being cut for Lebanon?
Where are all these soldiers going to come from? :(

3. I have no proof but I spoke with at least 3 last night that aluded to it
Saying that many of their written orders are suddenly fluid as to where the deployment will be. They all named Lebanon as a possibility.

5. I was in Guam a few weeks ago, met some sailors, air wing,
deployed on an aircraft carrier bound for Japan. I wonder if they've gotten new orders?:(

2. neutralize Hezbollah before they we attack Iran for same reason Japan
attacked our fleet at Pearl Harbor. They knew we would respond to what they were going to do next, so they neutralized our ability to respond.

Hezbollah is part of Iran's fleet.
