US plans Syria invasion via Jordan with 20,000 soldiers
"The US military is deploying more forces to Jordan as part of a plan to dispatch 20,000 more soldiers there in a bid to invade Syria under the pretext of securing the country?s chemical weapon arsenals. The Pentagon is sending nearly 200 troops from the 1st Armored Division to establish a ?small headquarters? near Jordan?s border with Syria and plan potential military operations, ?including a rapid buildup of American forces if the White House decides intervention is necessary,? The Los Angeles Times reports on Thursday, citing ?senior US officials.? The move marks the first deployment that American military officials have ?explicitly described as a possible step toward direct military involvement in Syria,? the daily adds. The first contingent of US forces is ?likely to arrive in Jordan this month,? the report says citing military officials, but ?most will go in May? and will be based at a Jordanian military installation. The Pentagon, the report adds, ?has also made plans to expand the force to 20,000 or more if necessary, including bringing in special operations teams to find and secure Syrian chemical weapons stockpiles, US air defense units to guard Jordan?s airspace, and conventional military units capable of moving into Syria if necessary.? US Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel revealed the military deployment Wednesday in a testimony before the Senate Armed Services Committee, but ?also made clear? that he and US President Barack Obama ?remained deeply wary of intervening in Syria just as US forces are trying to withdraw from 12 years of war in Afghanistan,? according to the report. This is while the Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff Army Gen. Martin Dempsey warned at the same Senate committee hearing that sending American troops to Syria could have ?unanticipated consequences.? ?As I sit here today, Senator, I do not see the introduction of military force would produce the outcome we seek,? Dempsey said. ?I don?t think it should be left unaddressed, let me be clear about that. But the introduction of military power right now certainly has the possibility of making the situation worse.? This while Dempsey supported a US military intervention in Syria in Fall of 2012, along with then CIA Director David Petraeus, previous Pentagon Chief Leon Panetta and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton. According to the report, Hagel is scheduled to visit the Middle East next week, which will include stops in major backers of the anti-Damascus military bids Israel, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, United Arab Emirates and Egypt. The entire trip is expected to focus on Syria. " http://www.presstv.ir/detail/2013/04...th-20k-troops/ |
They are putting together plans in case they are needed - I am just surprised they hadn't made these plans a long time ago - Better late than never I suppose.

The execution of their ambassador in Libya was not educational enough lesson to the US government? Why do they want to make a chaos in the Arab world and unleash radical Islamists all over the Globe? What's the profit?

Al-Qaeda have not attacked Israel before despite the fact that if we believe the 'Official Story' on Al-Qaeda then Israel would be top on their list of places to attack. This is because Al-Qaeda is a proxy-army of the west, controlled by the secret services. The only problem would come if you end up with a Saddam Hussein type character who stops doing what he's told, and goes off to do his own thing with all the resources and power you gave him. :2 cents: |

ah the WMD lie...poor syrians... US logic: the syrian govermnet is completely crazy and stockpiles WMD knowing fully well that the USA can run them over in a few days :1orglaugh or the syrians will use WMD and invite themselves to, at best, a massive invasion like the world has never seen before, at worst, they will be turned in to crystal and it will be called the syrian wasteland... its alarming to me personally that most americans buy in to this story...the entire syrian government would have to be made up of complete and utter madmen to actually go ahead with such a plan...I mean every general and government official and the president would have to be on LSD... I do not doubt that they are evil or what not...but complete and utter fools is another story... these US government presumptions about events that may happen and the preemptive strikes go back to WW2: -if we dont nuke fishermen 2x, war torn, crippled japan will somehow destroy the US or the russians will take the glory with a ground invasion (god forbid!) -if we dont invade vietnam communism will take over the whole of the world, screw our former allies, paranoia is the name of the game! -if we dont ivade korea communism will take over the whole world! we will not let an entire people pick their own destiry! NOOOO! we will bomb them in to democracy! -if we dont invade avghanistan we wont have a chance to stick one to the russians again...go USA! 2 points for us! -if we dont invade iraq saddam will WMD -if we dont support terrorists and separatists and muslims and send more weapons and bombs to yugoslavia, that had over 50 years of peace, everybody will kill each other -if we dont ivade lybia things will go to shit... -if we dont invade syria they will WMD somebody.. the leaps of faith some americans have in their own government is north korean like :1orglaugh |

The US needs to stay out of this. This isn't our problem. But whatever. If we do something about it everyone will say "Those damn Americans like to start wars" and if we do nothing the Syrians will say "You failed to help us and now you are our mortal enemies so we are training terrorists to attack you". Awesome. |
I don't think troops are a good idea, but at the very least we could help the rebels with a no-fly zone against the Syrian air force -- if you want to actually call them an air force.
