Retired U.S. Army Lt. Col. Daniel Davis estimated Thursday that only 4,000 to 5,000 “trigger pullers” or ground troops were being deployed in the region.
“I have seen no evidence that any kind of force of size has been even considered, much less alerted, prepared, equipped, or trained up that you would need to go. … That takes months of time to do,” Davis, a senior fellow and military expert at Defense Priorities, told CNBC on Thursday.
