Yeah, Trump always likes to keep his options open.
And as I said, without any great movement on the battlefield under the current circumstances, he's basically got two options, escalate or de-escalate.
Well, he's sort of chosen A and B, talking about a possible peace deal and a de-escalation, but also we're hearing more troops are headed to the region.
Two Marine units, both have 2,000 troops or a little more each, one coming from Japan, the other from California.
One should arrive any day now.
The other is probably still a couple weeks away.
And we've also heard that the 82nd Airborne is going to send about 2,000 troops to the region.
So about another 6,000 troops.
And these are highly trained troops that could certainly carry out a specific mission, but
But again, we're 6,000, 7,000 troops.
That's not a huge number.
There are about 50,000 U.S.
troops in the region on ships, airmen, ground troops.
So that adds to that total, which sounds pretty considerable until you think about the fact that Iran has more than 600,000 troops in its active duty army.
So the U.S.
presence in the region, even with these additions, would still be less than maybe 10 percent of what Iran has.
So it's not enough to carry out a major ground invasion.
It's enough to carry out specific operations.
Obviously, the speculation is on things like trying to open the Strait of Hormuz.
Essentially, that's what he said.
