Update: As submitted by Betty J: "My son serves on the USS Theodore Roosevelt, and I know for a fact he is at home. Just thought I'd pass that along. I also read a similar article at Indiadaily.com - somebody didn't verify their info. "

Thanks for the info. Sorry for the misinformation.


The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt is on the move in Atlantic Ocean and is possibly headed towards the Mediterranean Sea. The convergence of three carrier groups in the corridor of the Middle East will send very strong message to the Syrians and Iranians. There are indications that soon US is moving two more aircraft carrier battle groups to the Eastern Mediterranean Sea and the Persian Gulf. This will spell a formidable strike force for Iran and Syria who are in defiance on issues of Lebanon and Nuclear weapons development.

On 22 March, a man named Corsi picked up on this and published a piece in World Net Daily, a conservative internet "paper" which appears to confirm the information in the above article.



Is there a war plan? Ain't got a clue. But US Sec'ty of State Rice shot down trial balloons that we Israelis were going to knock out the Iranian nuclear facilities. On the other hand, "demands" by the US seem to be getting more and more specific on the powers that think they are in the Middle East.



Each battle group in the US navy carries a lot of firepower. Guess there may be another American incursion in our neck of the woods. Hmmmm...
