Iran changed its plans: the new US move in Israel
The Pentagon is considering establishing new bases in Israel and Jordan following severe damage to American bases in the Middle East, as reported by the New York Times. Meanwhile, 12 bombers were moved from Britain due to an Iranian threat. The rapid withdrawals sent Iran a dangerous message that they have the power to drive away a superpower.
The Pentagon is considering establishing new bases in Israel and Jordan, following severe damage to American bases in the Middle East, as reported by the New York Times. Meanwhile, 12 bombers were moved from Britain due to an Iranian threat. Some American bases in Qatar, Bahrain, the United Arab Emirates, and Kuwait, which suffered severe damage from Iranian missiles and drones, were so badly damaged that the Pentagon has no interest in rebuilding them. Six American service members were killed in an attack at the Shuwaikh port in Kuwait, and radar and communication systems were widely damaged. Iran also managed to locate and strike American forces who were forced to evacuate to unprotected hotels, and even hit the CIA station in Saudi Arabia. The logistical consequences of the withdrawal are dramatic: American aircraft carriers in the Arabian Sea must receive supplies from Diego Garcia, about 3,540 kilometers away. The rapid withdrawals sent Iran and other rival powers a dangerous message that they have the power to drive away a superpower.
