Australia increases troops in Middle East as globalist intervention intensifies
Australia is deploying more troops to the Middle East as globalist governments respond to the war in Israel by building up military presences in the region.
Acting Australia Prime Minister Richard Marles announced Thursday that two Royal Australian Air Force aircraft are being sent to assist an existing aircraft sent to the region last month. The prime minister also said the aircraft will be accompanied by “a pretty significant contingent of personnel.”
Marles would not divulge details about the specific destination of the new deployments “for operational reasons” but said they will “support Australian populations in the Middle East.”
Australian authorities reportedly secured this week the return of four citizens and one permanent Australian resident who were in Judea and Samaria and are working on the return of 79 other Australian citizens.
Australia’s announcement comes two days after the Pentagon announced the deployment of 300 more troops to the Middle East “intended to support regional deterrence efforts and further bolster US force protection capabilities.”
Last month US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin deployed the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower aircraft carrier and its strike group to the Persian Gulf. The naval force was the second in two weeks to be dispatched by the US after the USS Gerald R. Ford carrier strike group was sent to the eastern Mediterranean.
Secretary Austin ordered the deployment of the USS Gerald R. Ford — the world’s largest warship — to "deter hostile actions against Israel or any efforts toward widening this war following Hamas' attack on Israel." The order came two days after the October 7th attack in which Islamic forces from Gaza invaded Israel and massacred over 1,400 Israelis while managing to bring hundreds of hostages back to the Hamas-controlled Gaza strip.
In addition to the carriers — each of which can carry up to 5,000 troops, not including their strike groups — Austin has placed another 2,000 troops on prepare-to-deploy status and is sending air defense systems to the region. The defense secretary said the decision was the result of "detailed discussions with President Biden on recent escalations by Iran and its proxy forces across the Middle East.”
At the same time China’s Defense Ministry confirmed that six ships from the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) 44th naval escort task force spent several days in the Gulf of Oman last month. The warships — which include two advanced 052D guided-missile destroyers — have reportedly been in the region since May and recently participated in joint exercises with the Omani navy in what the China government are calling “routine operations.”
The ships left the Omani capital of Muscat on October 19th and sailed to an undisclosed destination.
These deployments appear to vindicate regional observers who predicted that the fighting in Israel is expected to expand into a regional war with the partnership of Israeli Muslims and those of Judea and Samaria, to provide a pretext for globalist intervention.
