What would YOU do if Obama tried to bomb Israel?

That’s the question I ask everyone. I know my answer...

If we have planes headed for Tehran loaded with nukes, it’s not to drop them it is to deliver them.

“Military planes loaded with nuclear weapons were flying around the US”

as part of current military practice and national security protocols, is not a certain, limited, amount of this always true?

just as our strategic submarines are always with their most “strategic” assets when they are at sea, no matter what is happening at the moment

Bomb Iran, if that is DumBO’s way to unilaterally disarm, OK.

That Air America guy is a nut-ball.

How does he hide his tin-foil hat so well?

Key-rist, Barskdale is a base that already has nukes so there are no reasons to import them to “fly them to the ME.”

Second, Barskadale is a base that is a clearing-house for the nuke inventory.

The B-2 is a much more capable platform for a mission this guy is weirding on.

I could go on, but suffice it to say, Air America is staffed with loons.

Your observation is point-on correct. The silly logic of Air America is stunning in its fantasy.

Especially since the Air Force brought back “SAC” in the form of Global Strike Command.

Do you really, seriously, think that Obama is in charge?

Well, according to one democrat Libya has noting to do with Obama. If I have complaints I should complain to the United Nations.

Me, I think whatever happens under the elected President's watch is the responsibility of the President. The buck stops on his desk.

Not exactly.

We do not fly nukes around as some sort of airborne alert.

Haven’t done so in decades.

Might fly a few for stockpile or maintenance, modification, upgrade (MMU) purposes, only.

Never as alert or on a training mission.
