The Pentagon announced plans to deploy a THAAD advanced anti-missile defense system to Israel – and 100 US soldiers to operate it.
This deployment, which is the first time the US will send boots on the ground since the onset of the Gaza war, shows “the White House is willing to sacrifice American lives for the benefit of Israel,” says Mike Prysner, anti-war veteran and producer for The Empire Files.
Prysner explains how Netanyahu plans to use US troops as ‘human shields’ in a plot to drag the US into war with Iran.
The US deployed an anti-missile system and 100 soldiers to Israel “to prepare for a US-Israeli attack on Iran”
