    I’m certainly nervous about the US sending a CSG there, with their history and all… but in this case, it’s a way to prevent counter offensives by neighboring countries, which do have a tendency towards invading Israel. If they intervene, things have gone reaaaally wrong.

    Well this and the fact that the CSG acts as a moving warehouse for selling/providing weapons to Israel.

      Biden specifically asked Israel not to use the situation for an easy land grab in his speech on the situation.

        It’s a good sign. This and the “first knock” still being in place. Rage is not a good counsel…

      Maybe Israel shoots at some Navy ships again to hide their activities (again).

          In the six days war they attacked the USS Liberty reconnaissance ship with fighter jets and torpedo boats and then invaded the Golan Heights.
