Map of aircraft carriers, destroyers, frigates etc. in the Eastern Mediterranean (Source: Souri Homsi / Syrian Perspective)
The following ships are on the way to the eastern Mediterranean or have already arrived there:
USS Mahan, destroyers, since August 2013 Mediterranean
USS Ramage, destroyers, left on for 8 months 7.8.13 Norfolk, Virginia, towards the Mediterranean Sea to catch up with the local US 6th Fleet.
On August 18, followed him from the same port of the US destroyer USS Stout towards the Mediterranean.

USS Barry, destroyers, and
USS Gravely, destroyers, both in the eastern Mediterranean and like all other destroyer equipped with Tomahawk missiles.
Furthermore, the nuclear-powered (two reactors) aircraft carrier Nimitz moved with 5 destroyers towards the Suez Canal, the Association of the amphibious assault ship USS Kearsarge has joined, which in recent months fluctuated between the Red Sea and the Mediterranean.
The nuclear-powered with two reactors aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman remained in the Persian Gulf.
The French frigate Chevalier Paul has also been sent to the eastern Mediterranean a few days ago, it is equipped with missiles. The frigate had 2011 already intervened in the war in Libya and bombed Libyan government forces.
In the eastern Mediterranean, also include nuclear-powered British and US submarines. This western Armada are far below Russian ships against:
The scout ship Priazovye that last Sunday the Black Sea port of Sevastopol left, continued since the end of July from the Pacific coming

Should there be a slugfest in and around Syria, could further added players. The massing of nuclear submarines and aircraft carriers against the Syrian coast is worrying. Should one or one to be hit by a rocket, a reactor could be destroyed.
(The first two rockets have been "tentatively" fired in the Mediterranean Sea, Israel spoke of a joint US-Israeli test.)
Then the Europeans could finally take care of her Fukushima before their own doorstep.
With the nuclear phase-out would however then once nothing. 250,000 years at least.
