The Pentagon is expected to send thousands of soldiers from the U.S. Army's elite 82nd Airborne Division to the Middle East, two people familiar with the matter told ‌Reuters on Tuesday, adding to a massive U.S. military buildup even as President Donald Trump talks about a possible deal ‌with Tehran to end the war.

Reuters first reported on March 18 that Trump's administration was considering deploying thousands of additional U.S. troops, a move that would expand options to include deployment of forces inside Iranian territory. Such an escalation could dramatically raise the stakes in the conflict, which is already in its fourth week and has roiled global markets.

Here we go again, fighting people on their home turf. We send soldiers to follow orders because they cannot understand the mission. They will be thinking about how they can survive to go home. The Iranians are home, fighting for their families and homeland, We will be lured into fighting in mountain passes and on land they know well and live in. When will we ever learn? We have been in some kind of conflict for 94 percent of our existence.
