Donald Trump 's former aide and MAGA star Steve Bannon Saturday said 'the party is on' and it's another weekend in this unfolding aspect of the third world war . "I'm just reporting what I'm hearing from pretty good sources," Bannon said while several B-1 bombers moved to Guam. It was not known whether the bomber deployment was connected to Middle East tensions.
The B-2 can be equipped to carry America's 30,000-pound GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator, designed to destroy targets deep underground. One official said no forward orders had been given yet to move the bombers beyond Guam. They did not say how many B-2 bombers are being moved.
Experts are now closely watching whether the B-2 bombers will move forward to a US-British military base on the Indian Ocean island of Diego Garcia, which is an ideal position to operate in the Middle East.
'Steve Bannon playing outsized role in Trump's Iran decision'
According to an ABC News report, Steve Bannon sat down for lunch with Donald Trump Thursday as Bannon has been playing an outsized role in Trump's Iran decisions. Before Thursday, Trump reportedly approved a plan on how the US might attack an Iranian nuclear facility.
The USS Nimitz – an aircraft carrier that can carry some 60 fighter jets – was set to arrive in the Middle East by the weekend with several smaller ships by its side. Officials said the extraordinary show of force would be needed if Trump pulled the trigger on the military option, both to strike Iran’s nuclear facility and to protect the some 40,000 US troops.
Bannon was the chief strategist to Trump during his first administration and now on the Israel-Iran issue, Bannon sides against authorizing military action against Iran. Bannon believes that Israelis have to finish what they started. “We can’t do this again. We’ll tear the country apart. We can’t have another Iraq.” Bannon, however, said he is aligned with the White House on the issue.
