The U.S. "Interceptor" recently said that if the United States "intervenes on the ground" in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the U.S. team will "provide support for the supporting forces." According to another report, the directive related to the U.S. team being sent to Iraq last year.

Although the documents do not indicate an imminent U.S. military intervention, the document released in January shows that the U.S. team is ready to provide aid to Israel, the report said. Moreover, after the outbreak of this round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict, the US ** team has ordered 2,000 people to be on standby at any time to be ready for support from neighboring countries. The existence of this directive was also confirmed by a procurement document obtained by Intercept**.
The U.S. Department of Defense has not commented on this, but the White House has repeatedly stressed that the U.S. support to Israel in this round of Palestinian-Israeli conflict does not include sending land forces. RT reported that immediately after the seven-day clashes, the United States sent two aircraft carriers to the Middle East and will add 2,000 troops to the region. John Kirby, the White House Defense Council's strategic communications coordinator, told on the 10th that the United States does not plan to "send Army" to Israel or Gaza. Kirby added a few days later: "The United States neither intends nor intends to send troops to Israel." But, as we said, the United States has a significant interest in the security of the region. ”

However, RT reported that U.S. special forces had entered Israel since last October, when U.S. Assistant Secretary of Defense Christopher Meyer said the forces"Services are being actively provided to the people of Israel", whose primary mission is to help find detainees, including Americans. The US Department of Defense also admitted that they had sent an unmanned aircraft to fly in the Gaza Strip under the pretext of "providing assistance in the rescue of hostages."
The U.S. "The Intercept" said that the official White House account had posted a handshake between Biden and U.S. special forces in Israel on Instagram on October 18 last year, but it was quickly deleted. The New York Times later reported that U.S. special forces in Israel were helping to free the hostages.
The U.S. "Intercept" reported that the above information it had received was a clear reminder of the presence of the U.S. forces in the Middle East, and that many Americans in the areas where they were stationed believed that their military activities had ceased for a long time, and that such instructions could soon be used to participate in new conflicts.
RT pointed out that since the beginning of the current round of Palestinian-Israeli conflicts, US targets in the Middle East have been frequently attacked. According to US officials, US troops in the Middle East have been attacked in 166 cases. On January 28, a deadly drone launched an attack on a U.S. base near the border between northeastern Jordan and Syria, killing three U.S. people and injuring dozens more.
The Washington Post said that after a serious attack on the US team, the issue of whether and when to withdraw troops has become "more urgent." An online journal of the American think tank Quincy National Institutes published an article calling for "the immediate withdrawal of the U.S. forces from Iraq and Syria." "The article says that it is a pity that the attack on the US ** team did not reduce US involvement in the Middle East, but hit it.
