And those troops will obviously be used to support military activities against Iran.
From the article it sounds like they’re there to defend the Gulf allies and Cyprus/Cyprus base.
Calling that defending yourself is the height of idiocy.
Easy there partner, I’m making the point that anyone even defending yourself against the missile would be helping the US even when it wasn’t their intention.
I’ll try to explain this to you one final time. These troops are ‘defending’ military bases which are used to attack Iran. Let me know what part of that you’re still struggling with. Bases that are used to attack Iran and countries hosting them are the aggressors.
It’s just that your first comment seemed to imply that the troops were going there with the goal of helping the US, when that wasn’t the goal but rather an effect from the goal of the troops defending the Gulf allies and Cyprus. That’s all. There’s really no need to get snarky about this, friend
I mean they are literally helping the US by working at the bases the US is using to attack Iran. You’re trying to draw a weird distinction here between them providing support by operating at these bases and actively engaging in attacks. In both cases they are active participants in the war of aggression against Iran.
It’s not a weird distinction between a goal (why they’re going there) and a (side-)effect (what is something that’s happening as a result of it), when someone seems to confuse the two lol
The only one confused here is you. The goal is to enable military operations against Iran. That’s why those bases exist in the first place. These troops are part of the war of aggression, and whether they have an offensive role or not is utterly irrelevant to the discussion. To put it in terms you might understand easier, if you’re a getaway driver for a bank robbery, you can’t use that an excuse to claim that you weren’t part of the robbery.
I’m not angry. I’m pointing out the simple fact that the reason those bases are being attacked by Iran is because they’re used to wage a war of aggression against Iran. I’m just trying to explain to you why those troops are active participants in this war. I don’t know why it’s so difficult for you to understand that frankly.
It’s just that you’re talking about a different thing to me. You’re explaining things that weren’t under question and don’t really relate to what I said. I was solely talking about why these troops were being sent there right now.
I appreciate the enthusiasm but it’s just a bit off this topic and more a general discussion about the war.

It doesn’t look like that’s why those troops are being send there right now though. These troops are for the Gulf allies and Cyprus.
You are angry about the British role in the Iran war and I feel you, but I’m just talking about why these troops are going there.
