B-2 bombers moving to Guam amid Middle East tensions, US officials say
Source: Reuters
WASHINGTON (Reuters) -The United States is moving B-2 bombers to the Pacific island of Guam, two U.S. officials told Reuters on Saturday, as President Donald Trump weighs whether the United States should take part in Israel's strikes against Iran.
It was unclear whether the bomber deployment is tied to Middle East tensions.
The B-2 can be equipped to carry America's 30,000-pound GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, designed to destroy targets deep underground. That is the weapon that experts say could be used to strike Iran's nuclear program, including Fordow.
The officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, declined to disclose any further details. One official said no forward orders had been given yet to move the bombers beyond Guam. They did not say how many B-2 bombers are being moved.

(3,017 posts)I understand the sourcing of this article but I'm talking bigger picture here. A President that had respect and concern, like almost all the others, for our troops etc wouldn't even respond to questions about military movements and/or use of military lethal force like these assholes do. "Yes we're looking into that" "maybe in the next 2 weeks" "Iran better watch out" and more posturing BS on Social Media is insane. I've never heard a President, hell not even that war criminal GWB, posture openly like a 2 bit Tin Pot Dicktater or some shit and put our troops lives in jeopardy. Real leaders say they will not comment on any use of the military...next question please. Lets just give them the fucking time and day on Truth Social so the fuckers can launch a barrage of SAM's at us. We're good but anything can happen, especially when they know we're coming. I'd be a little worried if I were in the service no matter how confident in the US military I've been. JFC what fucking morons.
