I know Mike Huck-a-buck and little Rubio warned US personnel to leave Lebanon.
Which pretty much signalled to anyone with half a brain that the US and Israel were planning something against Iran or Iranian proxies, but WTF didn't Kegsbreath evacuate accompanying US dependents from the Persian Gulf region back in January when they started their war posturing and moving ships in?
Let's guarantee we try to get some "innocent US service family members" killed to gin up support for Operation Epstein Scramble 2, Iranian Bugaloo Bois.
Accompanying dependants are always supposed to be temporarily removed from the region if the threat con increases.
There's been a process and evacuation plans for dependents in place for this type of occurrence since WWII on foreign postings.
Rant Update Edit: I stand somewhat corrected, From Al Jezeera (of all sources) earlier this week there was a memo at 5th Fleet authorizing voluntary evacuation of US dependents in Bahrain, including days authorized, approved locations to evacuate to, travel voucher processes and reimbursement rates for family members based on service and rank.
Mandatory evacuations apparently began 2 hours before Operation Epstein Scramble.
