Handing over the islands to the UAE would be a major political move considering their history* .....
BREAKING: The U.S. government is reportedly planning operations involving the three Iranian islands of Abu Musa, Greater Tunb, and Lesser Tunb.
The United States is increasing its military presence in the Middle East while maintaining an element of surprise by signaling negotiations with the new leader of the Islamic regime, Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf. Today, four U.S. Navy E-2D Hawkeyes are en route to Prince Sultan Air Base in Saudi Arabia. Additionally, six EA-18G Growlers were deployed to Ovda Airbase in Israel yesterday, and 12 F-16Cs from the 77th and 79th Fighter Squadrons of the U.S. Air Force are now being transferred there as well. Two amphibious assault ships and an additional carrier strike group are also heading to the region.
As part of this strategy, the United States is reportedly engaging in negotiations while preparing for a potential takeover of the islands, with the intention of transferring Abu Musa, Greater Tunb, and Lesser Tunb to the UAE in exchange for silencing the Persian Gulf states who have been protesting this war.
