I hear what he says, but if you are not intending to enrich weapons grade materials, why do you go to the expense of hiding your facilities half a mile under a mountain where you have to build tunnels and power facilities into it? When your stated goal is death to <whoever we don't like today> and you are sponsoring attacks on that entity is it reasonable to believe you are not intending to develop the weapon?

Same arguments regarding Hussein and the WMD inspections in 2004… Though, I still find it extremely hard to believe that there weren’t WMD… The only other explanation that I’ll entertain is that he pretended to have WMD programs to try and have some leverage…

There ya go.
For me it's never been about believing either one. I looked at what Iran does, not what it, or anyone else, says.

B2s on their way to Diego Garcia.
Range of a B2 is just shy of 7K miles…
Still, I’m surprised there aren’t B2s already stationed within range of the Middle East.

I’m not. It sends a message we have not wanted to send.

I didn’t think it needs to be advertised. Publicly sending the B2s to the region sends a message. Having B2s regularly stationed would be normal and expected, just as having some stationed in Germany…

If you have them already stationed then you can’t send a message by bringing them in.

Trump announced the United States had struck Fordo, Iran’s heavily fortified nuclear facilities, as well as two other sites.

I hope this works out. Anyway, next time America gets attacked by terrorists, well know who will get blamed. -

Apparently 6 Massive Ordinance Penetrator bombs were dropped on Fordow from USAF B-2 bombers. Isfahan and Natanz targeted with Tomahawk cruise missiles from submarines.
