Thousands Of US Troops Arrive Near Syrian Shore On USS Eisenhower
 Russia Today ^ | December 6, 2012

Posted on Thursday, December 06, 2012 8:34:30


The USS Eisenhower, an American aircraft carrier that holds eight fighter bomber squadrons and 8,000 men, arrived at the Syrian coast yesterday in the midst of a heavy storm, indicating US preparation for a potential ground intervention.

While the Obama administration has not announced any sort of American-led military intervention in the war-torn country, the US is now ready to launch such action "within days" if Syrian President Bashar al-Assad decides to use chemical weapons against the opposition, the Times reports.

RT? Oh brother....this article is pretty sensationalist.

The U.S.S. Eisenhower has "8,000 troops on it"....oh man...

It's an aircraft carrier, it has sailors and Marines on board. It isn't a Marine amphibious assault ship and besides helicopters it doesn't have anyway of getting those "8,000 soldiers" onto any beach head.

What a horrible article.

What a crock. It's RT, though, so it is to be expected.

It's not a crock, carriers don't travel alone...plenty of other ships with it.

But, I highly highly doubt Barry will send in ground forces.  Highly doubt it.

I'm curious, actually. There are reports that Assad has loaded sarin gas into both artillery shells and missiles and that the Syria army is just waiting on his command. The US/EU/other assholes have said that chemical weapons are a red line. Do you think we get involved if he starts using them? I think it's all talk but it'll be interesting.

I'm surprised Hezbollah hasn't outright entered the war yet. They've got divisions and clandestine operatives fighting on the ground but they haven't fully committed. They're going to be completely isolated should Assad fall.

My opinion is yes, especially if the Turks want it.  Even though I don't care for Obama's politics, he doesn't fuck around with these things.

He's more interested in keeping Turkey happy and trying to remain on good terms and we need them as allies (well...we'll say *cough* allies *cough*) from a strategic point of view.

Probably air strikes.

And probably under the guise of NATO - which is basically us, lol.  Maybe AL too, don't know where they stand.

Unless there are a few amphibious assault ships in that carrier battle group the strike force won't be putting down any Marines anytime soon. Plus the Ike only has about 5000, with about 1/2 being the air wing, on board. The entire CGS has around 8000. And it doesn't carry 8 fighter/bomber squadrons, maybe 4-5 for strike aircraft with the rest (90-100 total fixed wing) being support/EW etc.

I'm not saying shit won't go down if Syria cooks of nerve agents but that strike force isn't going to be the one to put boots on the ground.



And it looks like Ike is on its way home for maintenance, repairs and some downtime. Just in time for Christmas.

You don't need amphibious assault ships to put troops on the ground.  You've been watching too many movies.

And I assure you that neither you or I have knowledge of their full transport capability.  But we've seen more than 8k on humanitarian missions.  No way I'm gonna buy we couldn't do it for a military assault.

I agree...we won't go in via the ground, or highly doubt it.  And 8k wouldn't do much anyway.

Hell, for all I know Eisenhower may not even hang around.  Could just be a show.

But it's far from a crock to think we couldn't drop 8k without much of a problem.

But it's far from a crock to think we couldn't drop 8k without much of a problem.

Those much vaunted "8 thousand soldiers" are the personnel manning the CSG. Not an entire brigade waiting to make landfall. Those "8 thousand soldiers" aren't going drop anchor, leave their posts on the bridge, maintenance and such to pick up a rifle and swim to shore or catch a helicopter...and those humanitarian missions didn't have to worry about bringing along Abrams, Bradley IFV's and the like.

And no shit you don't need amphibious assault ships to put down troops, but if you're looking to put down any number that would make a difference what are you going to be using? Helicopters? From where? How long would that take? Using what soldiers? Airlift them in? Again, from where? How are you going to get armor/light wheeled transport/heavy weapons etc on the beach quickly without seaborne transport? Those troops have to be stowed away somewhere and you won't be stuffing a combat brigade on an already loaded aircraft carrier. Dropping 8k can be done relatively easily, it just won't be from this strike group.

I'm not arguing that boots will be put on the ground and airstrikes will be carried out if Syria starts using chemical/biological agents in this conflict, it just seems that RT is jumping the gun a bit on this one.

This story is full of sensationalist BS. It took a few minutes worth of poking around on the internet to figure that out.

I'm not saying that and neither is the article.  I guess your thinking that.

Again...looking at everything, it's every bit possible that they have 8k around the area with all the other ships to put in there (obviously not the crew...since you can't seem to pick that up).

And again, you don't know what that carrier is loaded with.  You don't know if they have all their squads, you don't know if they're running full squads.

You don't know shit about the current compliment and like typical GB'r you start making shit up, claiming it's already loaded.

Hell...I don't even buy the 8k number as being all that accurate...and the Navy isn't going to release exact compliments.

Is it probable?  For the 3rd time I highly doubt it.  Is it that far beyond the realm of possible...hell no.

Do you even know the basic geography?

They've got like what...a 120 miles along the med.  To the north is Turkey, to the south is Israel.

Even if the carrier and other ships are smack in the mid point, they could just go either way and dock - quickly.

Imagine that....DOCK the ship, and let the soldiers walk and drive their equipment off!!!

Wow...that's sophisticated, huh?



But, no according to you it's gotta be some Rambo operation with helo's going into the middle of a gun fight...and for some reason you think it has to be on a beach.  ::)

Like I said...too much television.

I know right!  Can't just dock the fucking ship and have the regular crew stay aboard.  Gotta be some elaborate plan.  ::)



Hell, I'll join in:


So all the crew swims in to fight the Syrians.  While gone, the Israeli's start stealing all the shit on our ships.  We call the Turks for help and they come down to chase off the Israeli's.

But, when we get our ships back, we realize we can't move them until we buy back all our stolen equipment from the Israeli's.

Obama and congress pass a "foreign aid" bill to Israel and we get our shit back.

Ahmed gets pissed about the aid, Syria has now been conquered by our sailors, and the ships head home.



A few minutes on the internet enabled me to see all this.  :D

The above has to be some of the dumbest shit I've read in a long time. You have HUGE reading comprehension problems or simply see what you want to see.

Where did I say the sailors where going to invade Syria? Where did I say it was going to be a "Rambo" operation? I never said that they would be jumping in helicopters either, those words had "?" after them if you missed that. I never said it had to be an amphibious assault, either. Again, can you read? I was simply pointing out that the ENTIRE CSG has around 8,000 navy/airmen/some Marines. That is the number RT is using and bending to make it seem like there are 8,000 soldiers ready to make landfall and hit Syria. This isn't hard to understand.

If that CSG doesn't have amphibious or troop transport ships they aren't disembarking any force in Haifa or storming any beaches anywhere.

The above has to be some of the dumbest shit I've read in a long time. You have HUGE reading comprehension problems or simply see what you want to see.

Where did I say the sailors where going to invade Syria? Where did I say it was going to be a "Rambo" operation? I never said that they would be jumping in helicopters either, those words had "?" after them if you missed that. I never said it had to be an amphibious assault, either. Again, can you read? I was simply pointing out that the ENTIRE CSG has around 8,000 navy/airmen/some Marines. That is the number RT is using and bending to make it seem like there are 8,000 soldiers ready to make landfall and hit Syria. This isn't hard to understand.

If that CSG doesn't have amphibious or troop transport ships they aren't disembarking any force in Haifa or storming any beaches anywhere.







Haha, haven't seen this kind of backtracking since my tour through the Catepillar plant.

Yeah...ok dude.  That's what people are thinking...all 8K jumping ship and going into Syria.  ::)

Yep...you knew all about SIMPLY docking the ship.

Those were just questions, lololol.   ;)


Goddamn I love this board.

None of these have an overall trend.

Are you an idiot?

Do you understand long term trending as opposed to temp spikes in either direction?

I don't jump into these threads normally to claim success or victory for either side on short term spikes.  I'll leave that for you to cry about.

If we've got a long term changes that are statistically significant, then let's see them.

Lack of comprehension skills are on full display from Skippy, it seems.

When you are unable to make your point I guess ignoring context and such can help.

Sad.

Yeah, this is what I mean.  Don't just take a month out.  look overall.

You can see from 2009 to now the up and back down, and even now we're sitting about a point or so off with the beginning of the year a little higher...then moving back down.

So, if it continues, then I think you may have some argument.

If 2013 and on, doesn't show a continuance, then you're hard pressed to make the claim.

I think the farther we got from 2008 the better the economy will get.

Until the next crash of course.

Its a little weird.

His business should be getting better as well as the rest of the economy but maybe he runs his business the way he posts.

Calling people commies, Thugs etc.

Imagine he is in a court where the judge is black and holds him in contemt or something. Thug!

Or a private citizen is suing a corporation. Communist!

Good thing your opinion means jack shit.

Ask the tens of millions of Americans without jobs and who can't find work if the economy is better now.

Yes, the economy and the job market are doing so well that the Federal Reserve is going to introduce a FOURTH round of Q.E.!

8-12 months from now, maybe earlier, the Fed will begin another propaganda campaign for Q.E. 5. It will be exactly the same rationale for Q.E. 1-4.

BREAKING NEWS Wednesday, December 12, 2012 12:18 PM EST

Syrian Forces Have Fired Scud Missiles at Insurgents, U.S. Says

Syrian forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad have fired Scud missiles at rebel fighters in recent days, Obama administration officials said on Wednesday.

The move represents a significant escalation in the fighting, which has already killed more than 40,000 civilians in a nearly two-year-old conflict that has threatened to destabilize the Middle East.

One American official, who asked not to be identified because he was discussing classified information, said that missiles had been fired from the Damascus area at targets in northern Syria.

“The total is number is probably north of six now,” said another American official, and that the targets were in areas controlled by the Free Syrian Army, the main armed insurgent group.

3333 are you hoping for another war so it puts the U.S. in more debt???

And another thing...Its the idea of loading chemical gas in those scuds that will cause action......not just more civil fighting.
