He warned Iran ("the bully of the Middle East") that if they do not come to peace then there are many other targets: "There will be either peace; or tragedy for Iran worse than the likes of which we have seen over the last eight days." "If peace does not come quickly," we will go after the rest of the nation with "speed and skill." He ended the speech by saying "God bless The Middle East, Gold bless Israel, and God bless The United States." Watch: President Trump then posted this to his X account And The White House released photos from The Situation Room as the strikes occurred: * * * Update (2133ET): Fox News correspondent Jennifer Griffin revealed that the B-2 bombers spotted heading to Guam were part of a calculated deception to draw attention westward: "It's notable how much deception was involved in this operation. All eyes were looking west towards Guam." "The 30,000-pound bunker buster bombs were dropped at Fordo. And as we have reported, there are two entrances to Fordo." "At least two bombs at each, two entrances, which suggests at least two B-2s were involved over Fordow. My suspicion is that there were more." Sean Hannity revealed he spoke directly with President Trump, who confirmed the scope of the U.S. strike on Iran's Fordow nuclear facility: Six "bunker buster" bombs were dropped by multiple B-2 stealth bombers. Thirty Tomahawk cruise missiles were launched from U.S. submarines positioned approximately 400 miles away. Hannity added, "Everyone is out of harm's way for now." * * * Update (2005ET): Hours after U.S. Air Force B-2 Spirit stealth bombers departed Whiteman Air Force Base in Missouri en route to the Indo-Pacific region, President Trump announced that U.S. forces had "successfully attacked" three nuclear sites in Iran—Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. The president wrote on his Truth Social: We have completed our very successful attack on the three Nuclear sites in Iran, including Fordow, Natanz, and Esfahan. All planes are now outside of Iran air space. A full payload of BOMBS was dropped on the primary site, Fordow. All planes are safely on their way home. Congratulations to our great American Warriors. There is not another military in the World that could have done this. NOW IS THE TIME FOR PEACE! Thank you for your attention to this matter. There has been no confirmation from President Trump regarding what type of USAF bombers conducted the strikes on Iran's nuclear facilities. However, based on timing and strategic capability, it is plausible that B-2 Spirit stealth bombers—previously observed departing Whiteman Air Force Base—were involved in the operation. Graphic via X user (((Tendar)): Operational details remain scarce pending President Trump's scheduled address to the nation at 10 p.m. EST. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY), who recently introduced a bipartisan War Powers Resolution aimed at prohibiting “unauthorized U.S. military hostilities in the Islamic Republic of Iran,” voiced sharp criticism of the Trump administration following the strikes. Posting on X, Massie wrote, “This is not Constitutional.” Polymarket bets... No leaks this time. "US military now briefing troops that its strike on Iran "will likely result in counterstrikes on US bases and facilities" in the Middle East, and "likely activate Iran and other foreign terrorist organizations cells abroad including the US to conduct strikes against US persons and facilities," according to briefing I obtained," reporter Ken Klippenstein wrote on X.

In parallel, U.S. Air Force B-2 Spirit stealth bombers are being repositioned to forward operating bases in the Indo-Pacific—possibly Andersen Air Force Base in Guam or Diego Garcia in the Chagos Archipelago—indicating a deliberate show of force and strategic signaling of U.S. readiness for multi-theater operations. Fox News confirmed six B-2 stealth bombers have taken off from Whiteman AFB in Missouri and are likely to be staged at Andersen AFB in Guam. Plus air tankers. There is no official confirmation regarding the current force posture or final destination of the stealth bombers. For months, the USAF has staged these nuclear-capable bombers at Diego Garcia (in range of Iran)— often referred to as America's "unsinkable aircraft carrier"—located between Africa and Indonesia, approximately 1,000 miles south of India. "President Donald Trump, who has said he will make a decision on U.S. involvement in the Israel-Iran conflict, is expected to return to the White House on Saturday afternoon. The president is expected to receive intelligence briefings with the National Security Council on Saturday and Sunday as he considers possible actions against Iran," Fox News noted. The island provides strategic access for stealth bombers to the Middle East, Central and South Asia, and across the Indian Ocean.

Staging B-2s at Guam or Diego Garcia is a clear signal of deterrence to adversaries, whether that's Iran in the Middle East or China and North Korea in Asia. The mere presence of these stealth bombers can be both preemptive and psychological. More force posture: This week, the USAF has repositioned additional fighter aircraft and aerial refueling tankers across key regional bases in Europe, coinciding with Israel's Operation Rising Lion targeting Iranian assets. The moves come amid growing speculation that President Trump may authorize direct U.S. military involvement within the next two weeks unless Tehran makes a deal with the U.S. Poster Comment: MORON -------------------- A dozen tweets and videos at source.
