Red Soviet Union

Chapter 554: use force

After a tiring day, President Reagan finally finished all his work, and had an after-dinner entertainment with his wife and children on the lawn of the White House, which was also a rare quiet time of the day. 【...】

The sky was full of stars, and Reagan was in good spirits.

"It's past nine o'clock, it's time to go back to rest," said Reagan's wife, Nancy.

"Okay." Reagan stood up, hugged his little grandson, and wanted to walk back. At this moment, he saw George, the chief of staff, hurried over: "Mr. President, please come to the conference room immediately, the Middle East has appeared. Major accident."

"Nancy, you all go back first." Regan said, his brows instantly filled with worry. With the foothold of the Soviet Union in Iran, the energy security of the United States is facing threats at any time. Now, because he must give priority to economic development, he has to acquiesce to this status quo. Once the war starts, it is all money!

Now, do not know what happened in the Middle East?

When Reagan arrived at the oval-table conference room, he saw that everyone else had arrived. CIA Director William frowned, and Defense Secretary Weinberg was in high spirits. This way, it seemed incongruous.

"Okay, everyone's here, let's get started, George, what's going on?" Reagan asked the White House chief of staff.

"Just half an hour ago, the Iraqis brazenly invaded Kuwait. Although there is no battle report from the front, the result is obvious." George said: "Kuwait has no ability to resist in front of the Iraqi army. Wait until tomorrow morning. Kuwait must have planted the Iraqi flag at the time."

Iraq invaded Kuwait! This Saddam is really a villain in the Middle East! Reagan suddenly felt a buzz in his head. Now, the chaotic situation in the Middle East has become even more chaotic, which is quite unfavorable for the United States!

Behind Kuwait is the United States, and behind Iraq is the Soviet Union! The Soviet Union has controlled Iran, and now, Iraq's invasion of Kuwait is a move by the Soviet Union to continue the Middle East oil in the air!

Kuwait's oil production accounts for about 10% of the world's oil production! Now, integrating the oil resources of Iran, Iraq and Kuwait, it is absolutely impossible for the United States to control the oil prices in the Middle East again! Moreover, Saddam's goal is obviously more than that. Kuwait has been occupied, and the next one should be Saudi Arabia! When Saudi Arabia was also occupied by Kuwait, the US power in the Middle East was completely ended! In the future, the Middle East world led by the Soviet Union will definitely use oil as a weapon to attack the Western economy.

Especially now, the U.S. economy is undergoing a difficult transition and development. When Reagan came to power, an important task was to stabilize the U.S. economy, reduce fiscal deficits, and reduce unemployment. But now, bad things are coming one after another. First, the Soviet Union launched a competition in outer space. Although the United States was unwilling, it had to follow suit. Then, the backyard in the Middle East continued to catch fire!

When he came to power, Reagan still laughed at Carter in his heart. After all, Carter lost the Far East, and now, it is his turn to come to power. Is it in his own hands that he wants to throw away the Middle East?

No, absolutely not. The Middle East is the cornerstone of the Western world led by the United States. If the Middle East is lost, the future of the United States will be impossible!

"What do you guys think?" Reagan said, looking at his think tank.

"Actually, we have long found signs of Iraqi troops gathering on the Kuwaiti border. We have also reminded the Kuwaiti royal family to pay attention to Iraq's actions, but they have not listened to our advice at all. In their eyes, they never thought that Iraq would Using force, they just think Iraq wants to use force to extort money from them." CIA Director William said: "Right now, we only hope to rescue a few Kuwaiti royal families, so that they can be formed in Saudi Arabia or in our country. A government in exile, Kuwait is not dead."

William means to form a government in exile. He also knows the current financial situation. Once the United States really uses force, the war will be a bottomless pit. In recent years, the American team has not won any battles. Let him naturally have no means of using force to solve it.

"The formation of a government-in-exile is only one aspect of it, the important thing is to help Kuwait recover!" At this moment, Weinberg took over his words and continued: "This is a good opportunity for us! The Iraqi invasion In Kuwait, the next target is definitely Saudi Arabia! In the face of this direct threat, Saudi Arabia can no longer refuse our military garrison plan! We can mobilize the troops in Pakistan to help Saudi Arabia resist the front line, and at the same time from Europe mobilized a portion of its troops to realize our presence in the Middle East."

Garrison in the Middle East! America has always wanted to directly control the Middle East! However, the US military presence in the Middle East has repeatedly suffered bankruptcy. All of this is because of anti-American sentiment in the Middle East.

Why are you anti-American? Because the United States supports Israel, Israel out of nothing, forcibly established a country on the land of Palestine! Behind Israel is the United States. In order to help Palestine, the surrounding Arab countries have directly interfered. They have fought four Middle East wars successively. Every country has soldiers who died in the hands of Israel. They are deadly enemies with Israel! Therefore, in various Middle East countries, there have always been anti-American voices in the country!

Under this circumstance ~www.readwn.com~ The royal family of Saudi Arabia and other countries has made good relations with the United States, which has already made the people feel dissatisfied. If they allow the US troops to be stationed again, then I don’t know how many demonstrations will break out! Therefore, the wishes of the United States for many years have not been realized. Although the positions of these countries are all pro-American, once the situation changes, the United States still cannot directly control it. For example, the ysl revolution in Iran, if the United States has troops stationed in Iran, It can help the government to calm down directly! For example, if there are troops stationed in Kuwait, it can help the Kuwaiti army resist the invasion of Iraq!

In the past, due to various reasons, the US military stationing plan in the Middle East has never been possible, but now, Iraq has finally given the US a chance!

"Weinberg, are you saying that our US Army is going to fight the Iraqi army?" Reagan asked Weinberg.

"We are here to maintain peace in the Middle East!" Weinberg said: "If we stop doing it, the entire Middle East will be controlled by the Soviet Union."

"I also agree to the use of force. This is a choice we must make. Otherwise, we are all sinners of the United States." Vice President George Bush also spoke. (To be continued.)
