Aircraft carrier sent to Middle East after indications Iran planned attack on US forces -- Lily McCollum

The United States sent out an aircraft carrier strike group and a bomber task force to the middle east in response to "clear indications" that there would be a strike on the U.S. The announcement was made late Saturday night. The supposed goal was to enforce to the Iranian regime that an attack on the United States would not end well for them. The U.S. is not trying to start a war, but wend a message.

This attack seemed to have come out of nowhere. It is scary to see tensions escalate so quickly, and it makes me worried about starting a war. The article just gives facts and keeps a neutral point of view to allow the reader to form their own decisions. It is also from a reliable website and provides strong sources to back up its claims, so the article seems to be able to be trusted.

The United States has been having troubles with the Middle East for decades, and it is sad to see the hostilities continuing. We have either been at war or on the brink of war for so long, and it is becoming tiresome. The U.S. does not need to always have an enemy to be powerful.
