In the face of antagonism from North Korea last week, Trump had said the USS Carl Vinson carrier group was being deployed to waters off the Korean Peninsula. "'We are sending an armada. Very powerful,' Trump told Fox Business Channel's Maria Bartiromo. 'We have submarines. Very powerful. Far more powerful than the aircraft carrier. That, I can tell you.' "It turns out the carrier group was never actually steaming towards the peninsula, but rather heading to joint exercises with the Australian navy. US officials insist it's now on its way to the Sea of Japan, known in South Korea as the East Sea. It still hasn't arrived...." http://the1onlyaarongoldstein.blogspot.com/2017/04/president-trump-lied-to-south-korea.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, I just heard on the news that the carrier group is about forty eight hours off the Korean Peninsula. Whether that's true or not depends on who you believe. And the S. Koreans STILL haven't retracted their news story about two more groups headed there.....that story is NOT true and no other news source has reported it.

So that the public will know. Our enemies already know, you cannot hide a fleet. And since our enemies know, there is no reason for us not to know. When I was in the Philippines the bar girls and taxi drivers knew when a fleet was about to dock long before any of us service members did.

They probably announced the move to reassure South Koreans that US help was on the way, even though it was going the wrong way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
