Looks like Trump is sending 500 US Troops to Saudi Arabia after the Iranians seized a British and UAE oil tanker in the Straits of Hormuz earlier today. I’m not sure I’m in favor of this. After all the backstabbing by the Brits, like their stupid ass delegate, let them send their own troops. What did the Brits do for us after Iran shot down one of our drones? This move has Bolton’s fingerprints all over it.
