Right about what? They’re not going to be fulfilling his idiotic carpet bombing dream. They will be dropping ACLMs.

Given this is Obama in the White House, those B-52's will be dropping food, munitions and military support for ISIS.

Let's not kid ourselves here. Obama supports ISIS.

No they won’t be dropping air launched cruise missiles. The B-52s are simply replacing the B-1s and will be doing the same mission. That is air interdiction and close air support. The USAF have been using strategic bombers for this role for decades. They can loiter for hours at high altitude and simply fulfil the role of precision guided bomb truck. The same role that they fulfilled in Afghanistan. They have recently upgraded to the new Sniper targeting pod.
