Did not believe it would come to this. We can add yet another "US military intervention" to the list.

@mods

Can we please get a resolution or an explanation? This appears to have happened a month ago.

I believe this has already happened:

@DanielFox9fff It says that they plan to do it, but it looks like the troops haven't been deployed yet.

@Agh Here are articles from Reuters and NYT: https://www.reuters.com/world/middle-east/us-says-thaad-anti-missile-system-is-in-place-israel-2024-10-21/

https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/21/world/middleeast/israel-thaad-missile-defense.html

The US made a statement that it was sending a THAAD battery to Israel along with soldiers to operate it. They followed that up about a week later with another statement that the battery had arrived and been made operational, clearly implying that the soldiers they had sent were there too.

Is this not enough evidence?

oh sure that's enough, I must have googled the wrong phrases.

@Agh FWIW, I spent some time looking at this earlier in the day and didn't write a comment because I got distracted. I tried to find any evidence that these 100 troops did or did not show up. I found roughly the same as what Daniel showed there. It seems like it should resolve Yes unless there is some technicality the creator is not here to tell us about.
