JD Vance denies US military boots on the ground deployment as Iran war intensifies

Vice President JD Vance has shut down reports that the US military is considering a boots-on-the-ground operation in Iran. Vance’s declaration came during an interview with ‘The Joe Rogan Experience’, where the pair covered several topics. Speaking to Rogan about the ongoing war with Iran, Vance asserted that the US is “not in the business” of using ground troops. “But we're not going to send 150,000 ground troops in order to accomplish a change in a regime unless the people on the ground themselves want to accomplish that outcome,” Vance said. “Now, we're not going to send the troops in regardless, but to propose sending in the troops, you're basically saying that the US military should do the job for the Iranian people. "We're not in that business anymore. We're just not.”
