A solid month of US recruitment for an anti-Iran naval coalition to
operate in the Persian Gulf has come to fruition, such as it is, and was officially launched this week, with Defense Secretary Mark Esper playing it up as a way to defend merchant vessels.
Heavily courting NATO, EU member nations, and other global powers, the
US initially presented this back in July as a huge deal. In the end,
they managed to get three other participants, Britain, Australia, and
Bahrain.
Many nations were very public in rejecting the idea of joining the
operation, both in that they don’t envision Iran posing a threat to
their ships in the first place, and particularly in that in joining the
US fleet they’d be making themselves a target if the US escalates this
into a war.
Indeed, even this paltry collection of participants was inflated by
Britain announcing their own fleet, recruiting for it, and then folding
it into the US version when it became apparent there was so little
interest.
Mind your own fvcking bussines and country CRIMINAL USA! And keep your nukes in the pants. Leave Iran alone!
Laughable……watch how the US and the MSM will spin this as a international coalition.
The only thing that will come out of this…….is more tension.
Japan is sending Playstations.
“With Few Members, US Launches Anti-Iran Maritime Farce”
Fixed.
Britain and Australia are the only two they need. France and Germany are almost irrelevant. The whole point is to get more than the US involved so they can claim a “coalition.” So who cares who turned down the request? Trust me, once the war starts, NATO will be involved – including France and Germany.
There is no room for this coalition in Persian Gulf! They can park their war ship 600 miles from Strait of Hormuz in the Gulf of Oman…After a while of sitting duck though it will collapse.
From the makers of “Mission Accomplished” and “Weapons of Mass Destruction in Iraq–Not” comes a rollicking new comedy filled with hijinks and slapstick that will have you rolling in the aisles with laughter:
American Coalition of the Killing, the Sequel.
