About this sermon
Amid the rising tensions in the Middle East, the US says it is sending more troops to the region. The Pentagon says the addition of "a small number of troops" is in response to the sharp spike in violence between Israel and Hezbollah forces in Lebanon and fears of an all-out war in the region. Officials did not confirm how many US troops are going to the Middle East, nor what their primary tasks will be upon arrival. The news comes as the State Department warns Americans to leave Lebanon. Retired US Marine and author of "Ghosts of Baghdad", Colonel Eric Buer, joins to share from experience, how many members of our Armed Forces are going and what they will be doing. Buer had several deployments to the Middle East, especially Iraq. He discusses what his thoughts are on the situation especially in Lebanon and whether he thinks we are about to see an all-out conflict. The colonel explains how the Biden Administration is handling the Middle East and whether there is anything he'd like to see them do differently. ------------ EWTN News Nightly provides the latest news and analysis from a Catholic perspective.
