The left is howling as usual, but Trump is in it to win it. It’s clear that he is determined to ensure that the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer threaten the world. If he succeeds, he will have pulled off the most astonishingly successful military operation since World War II or before. If he fails, the Democrats will win in November 2026 and/or November 2028, and the United States will cease to exist as a free society.

US officials cited in a report by The Washington Post said the deployment includes approximately 6,000 personnel aboard the aircraft carrier USS George H.W. Bush and its accompanying warships. An additional 4,200 troops assigned to the Boxer Amphibious Ready Group and the 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit are expected to arrive later this month.

The reinforcements are set to join roughly 50,000 US personnel already involved in operations aimed at countering Iran, as a two-week ceasefire approaches its scheduled expiration on April 22.

President Donald Trump has also announced a maritime blockade targeting Iranian ports, seeking to compel Tehran to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and halt its nuclear program as part of negotiations led by Vice President JD Vance. Talks stalled over the weekend, though the administration has indicated they could resume in the coming days.

According to The Washington Post, the expanded US naval presence will provide military commanders with additional operational flexibility should diplomatic efforts fail. The buildup is expected to bring the number of US aircraft carriers in the region to three, alongside multiple warships positioned to enforce the blockade.

The USS Abraham Lincoln has been operating in the region since January, while the USS Gerald R. Ford arrived in the eastern Mediterranean earlier this year. The USS George H.W. Bush is currently en route and expected to join them….
