In a rare announcement, the US military said a guided missile submarine has arrived in the Middle East, a message of deterrence clearly directed at regional adversaries as the Biden administration tries to avoid a broader conflict amid the Israel-Hamas war.
US Central Command said on social media Sunday that an Ohio-class submarine was entering its area of responsibility. A picture posted with the announcement appeared to show the sub in the Suez Canal northeast of Cairo.
The social media post did not name the sub, but the US Navy has four Ohio-class guided missile submarines, or SSGNs, which are former ballistic missile subs converted to fire Tomahawk cruise missiles rather than nuclear-tipped ballistic missiles.
The next POTUS is going to have an interesting term if things keep going south
Americans, please vote responsibly
So Biden? His challengers are a self help guru and another moderate businessman. On the right I don’t see anything but Trump ans Trump wannabes. It’s really not too heartening. I guess there is Uygur, but being Turkish born he is automatically disqualified anyway. And if he gets his pipe dream of changing that, it means the right would get Elon Musk on their ballot. I can almost guarantee he would run, and likely win… that’s nearly as scary as Trump.
