The report quoted experts as saying that the bombs are being put in place for an assault on Iran’s nuclear facilities.



According to the newspaper, although Diego Garcia is part of the British Indian Ocean Territory, it is used by the US as a military base under an agreement made in 1971.



The report said Superior Maritime Services, a shipping company based in Florida, , will be paid $699,500 to transport many thousands of military items from Concord, California, to Diego Garcia.


I have included the other thread that is covering the same story, however this one is more up to date with more information so make sure to check out the full article so you get the whole scoop.

I really hope all this attention towards these bunker busters doesn't mean something is definitely going to happen very soon, but there have been so much going on around the globe lately that it's hard to imagine something big *isn't* going to happen sooner than later...

Well just all need to be ready to brace ourselves when the time comes.

Just wanted to add, it's very possible this could mean nothing, so I don't rule that out. However, as I've stated theres just too much movement that's been happening recently... and over time. But maybe they are just stocking up, but if they are, then for what?

We know the military option is on the table, and we know bunker busters are needed if that option is taken.

These are the known knowns. What we don't know are the unknown knowns and the unknown unknowns.

Seems like this whole issue is starting to get a little hotter over there.

With the way everything is going, we'll be lucky to have England as a friend.

Time to seriously reconsider the current war plan(s). Let someone else go after Iran. Tell 'em all "we out" and see what happens. You deal with Iran-their missles can't hit the US (yet)-not our problem.
