Report: The US is preparing for a ground invasion of the Iranian oil island of Kharj

To counter the threat, the American war machine goes into high gear. The orders were given to the 1st Brigade Combat Team of the 82nd Division at Fort Bragg. These are the “quick reaction force” fighters, skilled in global deployment within 18 hours for complex tasks of taking over airports and critical infrastructure. The orders come after weeks of evaluations, during which the division, under the command of Major General Brandon Tegetmeier, even unexpectedly canceled participation in a military exercise.

At the same time as the paratroopers jump, the US Navy pours massive forces into the arena. Three warships from the amphibious readiness group “Tripoli” are approaching the Middle East carrying about 4,500 troops, including a Marine task force. A similar naval force, which includes the warship “Boxer”, left San Diego and is expected to arrive in the coming month to replace or reinforce the formation, in preparation for a possible scenario of an American invasion of the IRA oil capital
