US Deploys Full Patriot Battery to Israel Ahead of Expected Strike Window
🛡️ ISRAEL — A Patriot battery to Israel now raises an uncomfortable question. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: Washington reinforces Israeli air defenses precisely as Epic Fury looms — but Patriots defend against incoming, not outgoing. This signals US planners expect Iranian retaliation to hit Israeli soil once strikes launch. It deepens American entanglement in Israel's security posture at the moment Trump needs Epic Fury framed as US-led, not Netanyahu-driven.
