I suppose this pair of tweets should adjust our priors a bit. Still, I’ll believe it when I see it.
They’ll end up, after a lot of drama, with the same formula they use every time they have a trifecta: take away health care and food assistance from low income families and use the money to fund tax cuts for their donors.

@jon-nyc said in The Iran Nuclear Program thread:

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.

Back to the drawing board, apparently 6 15-ton GBU-57 Massive Ordinance Penetrators only damaged the front door and the mailbox.

It’ll buff right out.

Yeah, I would not listen too closely to that noise, but my greatest objection was the uncertainty of success.
