White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby on Oct. 12 ruled out the possibility of U.S. troops becoming involved in the ongoing fighting between the Israel Defense Forces and Palestinian terrorists, saying that the Israeli side doesn’t want its U.S. allies to wade into the conflict.
“There is no intention, no plan, and frankly, no desire by the Israelis for U.S. combat troops to be involved in this conflict,” Mr. Kirby said during a White House news conference on Oct. 12 in response to a question from NTD, The Epoch Times’ sister media outlet.
