US' WW 3 Preps? Trump Sends 3K+ Bombs to Israel as Iran Threatens to Flatten All US Military Bases

The U.S. has approved a major arms shipment to Israel, including 3,000 bombs, signaling preparation not just for Gaza, but possibly a strike on Iran. Israeli officials confirmed that these munitions will enhance Air Force readiness for large-scale operations. While the Gaza offensive takes global attention, analysts warn the real showdown may be brewing with Tehran. This deal, once frozen under Biden, was fast-tracked by Trump. Experts say the munitions can also target hardened Iranian facilities—raising fresh concerns about regional escalation and U.S. involvement in Israel-Iran tensions. #IsraelIran #USWeaponsDeal #GazaOffensive #TrumpReturns #MiddleEastTensions #IDF #HellfireMissiles #USIsraelAlliance #IranStrike #AirForceReady #PentagonDeal #BidenFreeze #MilitaryEscalation #TehranTarget #GazaCover #USMunitions #DefenseContractors #LockheedMartin #Boeing #L3Harris ~ED.346~HT.336~
