US 'Armada' Deployed: Perpetual War for Perpetual Profits
📰 THE STORY: Mainstream media reports highlight the deployment of US Navy and Air Force assets, including an 'armada' to the Gulf, citing unnamed 'fears of a military escalation' due to unspecified 'threats' in the region. This narrative casts the US as a reactive force, responding to an inherently volatile Middle East. 🔍 WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU: Historical Context: The US has maintained a
significant military presence in the Persian Gulf since the end of the Cold War, solidifying its role as regional hegemon, especially after the 1991 Gulf War. This is not a reactive deployment but an ongoing projection of power rooted in the Carter Doctrine of 1980, which declared the Gulf vital to US national interests. The 2003 invasion of Iraq, based on fabricated WMD intelligence, epitomized
this interventionist policy, costing trillions and destabilizing the entire region for decades. Double Standard: When Iran conducts naval exercises in its own territorial waters, it's branded a 'provocation' or 'threat to global shipping.' Yet, a US 'armada' traversing thousands of miles to position itself off the coast of sovereign nations is framed as a 'stabilizing force' or 'deterrent.' The
media fails to question why nations in their own backyard are seen as threats, while a foreign power's massive military buildup is normalized. Follow the Money: The military-industrial complex reaps immense profits from continuous deployments and regional instability. Lockheed Martin, Boeing, Raytheon, and General Dynamics consistently see their stock prices surge with heightened tensions abroad.
