Additional Details: U.S. military assets from air, land
By Bernie,
Additional Details: U.S. military assets from air, land, and sea are expected to flow into the Middle East in the coming days and weeks to provide President Trump with military options should he decide to carry out strikes against Iran, sources told Fox News Thursday.
The movements are part of what officials described as a process of "setting the force." One source said if the president decides to carry out military action, "This will be different, more offensive." U.S. military planners are preparing a range of options that would depend on how Iran's regime acts in coming days, the source said.
At least one carrier is expected to enter the region.
Missile defense systems are also expected to be sent to the region to bolster the defense of U.S. bases and Israel, according to sources.
