It’s more likely that they are being sent because they are trained to operate THAAD and sending them is more efficient than training IDF troops to operate it.
Iran launched missiles at US bases in Iraq a few years ago with very little in the way of retaliation.
Operating the anti ballistic missile aystem that’s being sent.

The party that kicked members out for claiming that Israel influenced politics in the UK is hilariously influenced by Israel.
It’s crazy how scared neolibs were of an actual socialist (Jeremy Corbyn) getting near the levers of power.
mindless drone territory
The only part of this you seem qualified to weigh in on.
Think about it for a second, no, half a second and see if anything occurs to you.
and the fact it invented buddhism.
Siddhartha was born in what is now Nepal.
You are definitely highly regarded.
Happily we no longer need to wonder as op confirmed this was not hyperbole.
You see sometime people say things that isn’t true for dramatic effect.
An interesting thing to post to someone who declared they were being sarcastic. You know, when I said aomething that wasn’t true for dramatic effect?
Would that really make it less mental?
I was being sarcastic; its fucking mental to brag about how easily your sister resorts to violence.
Seems like a perfectly rational response.
What do you mean by respected?
It depends on what your opinion is and what you mean by respect.
If your opinion is not well explained or backed up by evidence/logic and isn’t something completely subjective, what is there to respect?
If your opinion is reprehensible, downright stupid, or ignorant? You have access to the entire base of human knowledge and are still ignorant, so what is there to respect?
Your opinion is completely logical/uncontroversial or is well backed by evidence? Where does respect come into it?

Ah yes the death penalty, famous for deterring crime.
Yeah I think that’s why Iran attacked the US base (might have been multiple, I can’t really remember) iirc.
I think a big part of why the US didn’t respond is that a) they took out Soleimani first and b) an Iranian air defence battery, on high alert expecting US retaliation, immediatley shot down a passenger jet.
The airliner being downed really took the sting out of it, kind of like someone swinging at you, barely connecting, and then immediately punching themselves in the dick.
