What an impressive sight it was Sunday, when the futuristic B-2 stealth bombers sliced through the powder-blue Missouri sky on their triumphant return to home base in the American heartland after dropping their Massive Ordnance Penetrator bombs on Iran’s underground nuclear sites.
The strikes were “a spectacular military success,” President Trump told the world Saturday night, after emerging from the Situation Room.
“Iran’s key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated. Iran, the bully of the Middle East, must now make peace,” he said.
While Joint Chiefs Chairman Lt. Gen. Dan “Razing” Caine said Sunday it was “way too early” to know the full extent of damage at Iran’s Fordow uranium enrichment complex, satellite images show several large holes and a layer of gray-blue ash where all 14 massive “bunker buster” bombs, each weighing 30,000 pounds, hit their target Saturday night in Operation Midnight Hammer.
