Biden Pledges New Military Deployments To Defend Israel In Netanyahu Call

• https://www.zerohedge.com, by Tyler Durden

"The President reaffirmed his commitment to Israel's security against all threats from Iran, including its proxy terrorist groups Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis," the White House call readout stated.

Alarmingly, Biden also informed the Israeli prime minister that he is readying new deployments to the Middle East. This even as the US Commander-in-Chief was essentially forced to bow out his campaign for reelection due to health and mental acuity concerns, including speculation over dementia.

And all of this is happening with basically zero Congressional input, meaning a somewhat senile and elderly President Biden could be taking the nation into yet another war and Middle East quagmire with no additional oversight or Constitutional checks and balances whatsoever (of course, this is the entire legacy of the GWOT as well). 

"The President discussed efforts to support Israel's defense against threats, including against ballistic missiles and drones, to include new defensive US military deployments," the readout continued.

The White House confirmed that Vice President and presumed Democratic nominee Kamala Harris was on the call. Previously the administration and the Dems touted here supposed foreign policy experience and credentials.

On Wednesday, within hours after the Haniyeh assassination, Biden's Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin was the first to announced that the Pentagon would play an active role in any potential Iranian attack on Israel:

"If Israel is attacked, we certainly will help defend Israel," U.S. Defense Secretary, Lloyd Austin, told the media aboard the USNS Millinocket during a visit to the Philippines. "You saw us do that in April; you can expect to see us do that again," he said.
