Iran Wars : 5,000 U.S. Marines on the way! Semper Fi!!!!

I think he is too dumb to know what pressure it. Also, he'll deceive himself just like he's always trying to deceiving everyone else.:biggrin:
He's not dumb. He's evil. He knows the consequences of ground troops in Iran because once upon a time, he was conscripted to go and fight in Vietnam, but he chickened out and "keng" his way out of the conscription. A fucking coward he is.

He's a coward, not fit to be the commander in chief. To him, lives mean nothing to him. As long as they're not his own family. I have zero respect for him and his cronies.
 
May the fearless Iranians finish off each and every mother fucker who lands on their country.
 
Nice target for iran.
The USS Tripoli will be heavily guarded with early warning aircraft, fighter jets, and escort warships.
The Iranians are likely formulating a strategy to act upon the Tripoli's arrival, bolstered by their confidence from recent incidents involving two carriers.
One advantage Iran possesses is its hypersonic anti-ship missile, which has demonstrated effectiveness in evading U.S. anti-missile interception systems.

As many as 5,000 additional U.S. Marines are heading for the Middle East in a possible escalation of Donald Trump’s war on Iran, according to a report.

Days after Trump appeared to suggest the conflict was “done,” the Pentagon has reportedly agreed to send additional warships and troops to bolster U.S. forces in the region.

U.S. administration officials have refused to rule out using boots on the ground to launch an all-out assault on the Iranian regime.

With the two-week air assault failing to bring down the regime and growing pressure from the president’s MAGA base for a quick win, the development suggests the administration is planning a change of strategy to take out Tehran.

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth attacks the press in his briefing at the Pentagon on March 13, 2026.
The Wall Street Journal has claimed that the newly deployed troops include a Marine expeditionary unit with several warships and a potential landing force of 5,000 Marines.

It will be part of an “Amphibious Ready Group,” reports the Journal, based on interviews with three U.S. officials.

An ARG usually includes three ships—an amphibious assault ship, a dock landing ship, and a transport dock—along with helicopters and fighter jets such as the F-35B Lightning II.

The expeditionary unit provides an all-purpose Marine air-ground assault team for sea, air, and land combat.

One of the ARG’s chief uses, as explained in its official guide, is, under certain situations, to carry out “the rapid insertion of sustainable combat forces—“boots on the ground”—to underscore the nation’s commitment to an ally or to protect our National Security interests."

President Donald Trump gestures during a visit to a Whataburger in Corpus Christi, Texas, U.S., February 27, 2026.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth reportedly agreed to the request from U.S. Central Command. The Pentagon has not commented on the Journal report.

The use of ground troops would raise the stakes in a war that has so far been fought in the air. It would also make it impossible for Trump to declare victory and move on, as he did with Venezuela after snatching the South American country’s leader, Nicolás Maduro.

Trump has been under pressure to act over the impasse in the Strait of Hormuz, the key world waterway for oil, which has been paralyzed by Iranian missile attacks.
