The U.S. is sending a second aircraft carrier to the eastern Mediterranean to deter Iran and Lebanese Hezbollah from entering the Israel-Hamas conflict.

The Pentagon has ordered a second aircraft carrier strike group to the eastern Mediterranean near Israel to deter Iran or Hezbollah from joining the Israel-Hamas conflict, according to U.S. officials.

A senior US official and a US official told ABC News that the USS Eisenhower carrier strike group will be ordered to the eastern Mediterranean to join the USS Gerald R Ford carrier strike group that arrived there earlier this week and is in international waters off of Israel.

"I have directed the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower Carrier Strike Group (CSG) to begin moving to the Eastern Mediterranean," said Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin in a statement confirming the deployment. "As part of our effort to deter hostile actions against Israel or any efforts toward widening this war following Hamas's attack on Israel."

    One psychopathic government that has no issue committing atrocities against civilians and children sending another ship to defend another psychopathic government that’s committing atrocities against innocent civilians and children.

    And the MSM goes this is fine. We will condemn Hamas for killing children, whilst we will also blame Hamas for Israel killing children.

    Fuck Hamas, fuck the Israeli government, fuck the us government, fuck outing Putin and fuck my own (uk) government whilst we are at it. All monsters of the highest order.
