Fordow has two entrances. For a couple days, Jennifer Griffin has been reporting that 2 B-2s would potentially be used at each entrance.

Seal up the entrances. We don't want that radioactive gas escaping.
 
The thing about war, people in America seem to forget for some reason I cannot determine, is those you attack fight back.

And you don’t get to decide how they do that.
 
I saw the moving of the B2's and for anyone with a brain that means we are positioning ourselves to take action if necessary. We could have flown the mission from the U.S. with refueling taking place in the air. This gives warning to Iran to do the right thing, but I don't think their leaders have any intention of voluntarily giving up the nuke program.

B-2 stealth bombers appear to be on the move hours before Trump expected at White House

Six B-2 stealth bombers appear to be heading toward Guam as President Donald Trump contemplates getting the U.S. involved in the escalating conflict between Iran and Israel.

Faux is not a valid source.

Please find a source that is not owned by a self-confessed lying sack of shit.
 
I read it as the military doing what the military does. Getting ready for the CiC's order whatever that may be. They are getting in place in case the order is to attack. It also could be a tactic to scare Iran to the table. Who knows?

What puzzles me more than anything is why Trump seems to be going with Israeli Intelligence instead of his own? Bibi lied about Iraq having a bomb and he has said Iran was close to a bomb for 8 years now. Seems to me, after Iraq, Congress at a minimum should be asking to see the evidence that Iran really is close to a bomb.

Iran, a very bad JPCOA deal under Obama, and decades of not taking care of a problem put us in this position.

We, America, the Good Old U.S.A. sticking our noses in the Iran (Middle East) tent is what got us into this "position".

The JPCOA was working, President Donald Trump shredded the JPCOA along with assassinating an Iranian general inside Iraq as well as ramping up his aggressive rhetoric against Iran is giving Iran good reason for seeking to have Nukes.

Each B2 can carry two 30,000lb bunker busters that can each penetrate 200 feet through rock, concrete and steel.

Just think of what twelve of them will do to Fordo.

Maybe.

But it is possible our leadership is simply incompetent.

I'd rank that possibility as high given the president has decided to not listen to US intel and instead trust a foreign leader itching to get this country involved into a conflict his nation started.

Incompetence is one of the two things that scare me.

The other is tornadoes.

Let's not forget that Iran isn't some innocent bystander in all of this, and one can certainly argue this is a bed of their own making given the endless back and forth between itself and Israel. This has always been more a question of how the nuclear threat from Iran is managed without more conflict since we know that tactic tends to fail spectacularly in the Middle East. While the JCPOA did have some issues with keeping Iran fully compliant, its absence has had a much greater effect on it enrichment initiative than with the agreements in place:

Right now this whole approach of "we're going to blow up your nuclear facilities and keep doing it if you try to rebuild" is an absurd approach, but it's what's available absent any real thought as to what else Israel has in mind. Netanyahu and Trump have both hinted at getting rid of the regime so it's anyone's guess. What's comically bad about this entire scenario is the same idiot who got the US out of the deal and created this mess is back in charge and will likely have equally bad ideas.

What makes you think Iran is building nukes? Because Israel told you they were?
