But where are they going?
I found it, going to Qatar. Less of a training exercise and more a sales call with demonstrator models. Soldiers should get a cut of the profit if they make the sale.

Flyingsword, it’s a smart move to capitalize on the US retreating from the Gulf Arab countries. SK will replace the US military equipment, with South Korean ones. Good business for the ROK, while the US sulk.
We’re retreating from the Arab gulf countries?
I only wish.
I only wish.
So the Trumpian liz or Liz wants to give up on petroleum and switch over to renewable energy sources, hydrogen, and electric cars.
Korean personman thinks we started using oil after the first Gulf war.
Korea Person is so cute.
It thinks America gets its oil from the middle east.
70% of America’s oil imports come from Canada and Mexico. Less than 15% come from the middle east.
And America imports less than half it’s oil (thought it was a net exporter under Trump).
America’s presence in the middle east is just to oversee Europe and China’s oil supply in case they need to be reminded who is Boss.
…like Europe has with their gas supplies and Asian supply chains.
Renewable energy is a woke joke, completely unsustainable. WEF globalist want to switch to solar at the same time they are talking about blocking out the sun….
“Renewable energy is a woke joke”
I hate to inform you that you are wrong.
We already have a cheap source of sustainable, carbon-neutral, fully-renewable, clean-burning fuel.
Not only would it solve the global warming crisis but it would put America’s delapidated shipyards back to work as they rebuild our whaling fleet.
And we haven’t even considered how much oil can be pressed from an aborted baby.
Ah yes, typical answers from the poorly educated Setnaffarians.
Had the Setnaffarians been more better educated and smarter, they would have seen the bigger picture and would have realized that it’s more about oil prices instead of oil import source.
The reason oil prices aren’t that high is because oil from the Middle East is flowing without hindrance.
However if the region becomes more unstable and the flow of Middle Eastern oil is hindred then prices will go up and the dumb Setnaffarians would now realize that their gas guzzling pickups are more of a liability.
So, it is in the best interests for the Setnaffarians to keep US troops in the Middle East forever so they can drive around in their gas guzzling pickup trucks.
If they don’t want that then have to switch to electric cars and we all know the Setnaffarians won’t be caught dead in one.
However, as can be recently seen, the Setnaffarians can’t make up their minds on what they really want.
They want Trump to become President but want USFK stay in Korea which goes against Trump’s policy.
It’s like they want to vote to Trump, but in actuality are supporting Kamala’s policies.
In that case why don’t they just vote for Kamala.
Korean manperson thinks we are leaving the Middle East.
Just typed a bunch of word salad to accuse us of Korean manperson’s ignorance. Liberals always blame others for their own offenses.
