Warzone/The Drive: U.S. Marines Launch Mock Amphibious And Air Assaults On Saudi Islands In The Persian Gulf
The training exercises come amid a new spike in hostility with Iran, which uses its own nearby islands to stage various naval operations.
U.S. Marine Corps and Navy forces recently conducted mock amphibious and air assaults on a pair of small islands in the Persian Gulf that belong to Saudi Arabia. The exercise came just days after a swarm of small Iranian boats performed dangerously provocative maneuvers around a number of U.S. Navy and Coast Guard vessels during training elsewhere in this same body of water.
The 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) and the Navy's Bataan Amphibious Ready Group conducted the exercises on Karan and Kurayn Islands between Apr. 20 and 22, 2020. For its present deployment, the Bataan Amphibious Ready Group includes the Wasp class amphibious assault ship USS Bataan, the San Antonio class landing platform dock USS New York, and the Harpers Ferry class dock landing ship USS Oak Hill. It is also receiving support from the Arleigh Burke class destroyer USS Stout.

What pandemic?
Te common cold is ubiquitous. We do not call that a pandemic. 16% of common colds are corona and not rhino infections.
With this level of ignorance I expect 50s era films to make a come back.

What pandemic? Excellent question. The US government certainly isn't behaving like they think there's a problem. If they truly thought there was a problem, they'd be working to get more testing in place, they'd be diverting resources towards this by furloughing without pay non essential government employees, and scaling back foreign military operations to focus more on basic defense and free up resources to fight COVID-19. They're doing none of this. This is looking more and more like a political power play by certain unscrupulous elements. Fortunately some are starting to call them out on it.
