The United States is readying its special forces to help Israel locate American hostages, as waves of Israeli Defense Force reservists arrived at JFK airport in New York to join the fight against Hamas.
Two senior U.S. military officials told The Messenger that 'door kickers' have been put on standby in a nearby European country, ready to assist Israel if necessary in their battle against Hamas. The Israeli death toll rose to 1,200 on Tuesday.
The military sources told the website that there was currently no indication the U.S. special forces would be sent to Israel, but they were only a few hours away by plane if need be.

Thanks for telling our plans to the world-that mostly hates us. Want to show us the map where they will be going too? THIS is such a STUPID idea. Loose lips...remember?
Hamas' plan worked because they made the plan OFFLINE. We announce ours to the world.

Curious why this didn't happen when the Afghanistan situation / debacle happened on Joe's watch? Never mind it was, and always will be, about politics - human life is cheap / a non-factor, and positive MSM coverage trumps everything especially in an election year.

This administration appears to be stepping up - let's give credit where it is due. There is a carrier group heading east to be off the coast of Israel. I don't believe they will engage alongside Israel but are there to tell the neighboring countries to stay out of this.

Everything biden does is suspect. Why? Because he stole the presidency and he's a lying, cheating, senile, racist thug.

I thought it was our policy to keep the mission of a Seal Team secret. Clearly, things have made a decided turn under the Biden administration and not for the better. God bless our men and women and of course, everyone in Israel and keep them safe.

I hope this doesn't end up as a redux of Jimmy Carter's embarrassing failure of a rescue mission for the Iran hostages.

Well, they just put an even bigger target on the backs of these special forces, wanting to appear to actually be doing something. Lets see how long Biden stands behind Israel, before he asks them to cease fire, while still pumping billions in to the Ukrane, and kissing Iran's as*.

This news comes just a week after the Pentagon announced the draw-down of funding to the SpecOps community. Brilliant planning there by the 70% useless bunch of Deskbound Generals who manage budgets, not men, and fight battles with Congress over funding, not evil in the streets of foreign villages. Cut funding of the idiocy of changing names of Forts and Bases, and do something intelligent for once.
Oh, by the way, thanks for telling the world where to find our SpecOps warriors. Our "woke" DoD morons never cease to amaze.

As others have said, the missions and who is on them are supposed to be classified. Are the leftist anti-Americans in the Biden ("JoeBama") regime hoping another helicopter gets shot out of the sky?

No team’s location or objectives should ever be known by anyone other than those with Need to Know. I would hope the commander of 6 would be in Israel in consultation with his counterparts there.
The fact that this was an open announcement smacks of pure politics.

I would like to think that this announcement is smoke to hide what these special forces will really be doing, but given the disaster that is the Xiden cabal, I doubt it.

The Biden regime probably had to quickly poll some focus groups before ordering special forces to go try to save our people. That is why it didn't happen more promptly.

Has Biden's gang posted the address for the families of Seal Team 6 yet?

#4, I guess I would need to know what the definition of "stepping up" is because the administration is HAVING to respond or react. Stepping up would have had to occur earlier in his administration. . .

they're probably "in country" already....they wouldn't wait this long. And if we found some hostages, we would keep that under wraps til we found more...the bad guys are probably getting their knee caps shot off so they'll start talking...(Vince Flynn books with Mitch Rapp)

After UBL was taken out in Abbottabad, Pakistan it was Obama's VP (Brandon) who let it skip that SEAL Team 6 had done the deed. Shortly afterward, most of these warriors were killed when their helicopter was shot down. Others are correct to note that these missions by the SEALs and Delta Force have already been given away. Pray for our troops and for the Israelis. May the Islamist enemies of civilization be eliminated down to the very last one.

My prayers are with you all....This is not a time to be timid and compliant...this is a time for action to answer the call for justice for all those beheaded babies...this has been the slaughter of the innocent...and no amount of demonstrations can justify what these animals have done to Israel.....so let AOC and her squad try and justify the action....WE Americans stand with Israel...and let's unseat the squad...they are not Americans....

Well, this is what I recommended yesterday. These are the premier Tier One hostage rescue teams in the entire world. I hope that their entire support team structures are included. They are not just a few hotshot guys. It is a system from intel, planners, pilots, armorers and more who make those guys at the tip of the spear ultra effective.
Best wishes to these brave men. They ARE going into the den of the rabid dogs.
I'm actually surprised that Traitor Joe was forced into this. I'm sure that Valerie Jarrett is not happy about this.
I hope that Israel's Dolphin class subs are in good firing positions and well hidden. They are believed to carry a few nuclear tipped cruse missiles.

#22 - Thank you for remembering that Seal Team Six. A member of that team was a local man from our area. They named a new bridge after him. Every time I cross over, I pray for Jesse Pittman and his companions, and that the true story of their murders and who is responsible, Joe Biden, becomes known to the public.

Thanks to #22 for remembering the loss of so many fine American men.
Biden's constant need to stroke his own ego, to be perceived as powerful, causes him to run his mouth without filters and to steal glory from men of real courage. His brain was not functioning even back then.

Why would Biden and his crew be telling the international media anything about US troop movements around the very unstable Middle East? Maybe for domestic partisan political purposes?

The article states that there is no intention of sending Us special forces to Israel unless they ask for them. This looks like an attempt to claim the Biden administration is “doing something” when they are doing nothing of value.

#26, during our trip to the PAC NW last month, we took the rather tedious route, Cal 299, from Redding over to the 101 instead. It would have been a high honor and a much easier drive to have taken our truck and fifth wheel trailer over the Pitman Bridge and to pay TK and you a visit.
As regards the Delta Force and Seal Team Six whose task is to infiltrate Gaza and to rescue hostages alive, some brave young men and women are about to make world history. God Speed, soldiers.

If Biden were serious, he send in the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force to Israel, not just to adjacent country, as he did Delta and SEALs. The SF troops are good at hostage rescue but 1MEF is good at destroying large numbers of enemy combatants and all of their stuff. By stuff, I mean some of the billions in front line U.S. weapons of war that Biden conveniently left in Afghanistan after Biden ordered our military to cut and run.
