The United States dispatches 15,000 troops to Kuwait

19. true. and a couple more factors to the equation, as well.

still existent, buried in the halls of military & govt., are numbers of egotistical scum, who won't be happy & sated until they've taken down & massacred hordes of Iranians - for the perceived slur on the great white hope, the USA, for the US embassy hostage crisis; even if the US brought it on themselves by having the legitimately elected president of Iran assassinated, & replaced with the puppet who sat on the peacock throne. this desire propelled by an arrogance similar to that which ordained Saddam Hussein should be destroyed, for planning to have the guy he served & was betrayed by - George Walker Bush - assassinated.

then, there's all that glorious oil pooled under Iranian sand, which God manifestly destined for the US & its minions to have; & which destiny, the Iranians have so far thwarted twice. Refer again: the Iraqi adventure.
