USS Eisenhower Fleet Deployment.

[and-justice-for-all]

..I heard last week, cant remember where that the USS Eisenhower and a nice sized escourt fleet was deployed to the Persian Gulf. This was after the commanders were told to be prepared for deployment by October 1st.

I honestly think that the "Osama is dead" propaganda was a distraction and completly untrue. A smoke screen for this fleet deployment last week, this is posturing on the US side since Iran will not bow down to the GOPs commands. The act of a blockcade is an act of War and Iran, under UN law, can retaliate lawfully.

I was just curious if anyone has heard anything or anymore about this.

1. Nothing to stop the war in Iran now

if we protest it and go beyond our "free speech zones" then we're enemy combatants and never heard from again. It's over.
