The Game is Afoot: Stealth in the Pacific
The scent of gunpowder and international intrigue hangs heavy in the air my dear readers. Two anonymous informants figures as shadowy as the B 2 bombers themselves have whispered in Reuters' ear of America's decision to relocate these silent spectres to Guam. A curious move indeed. One wonders if President Trump a man whose pronouncements often require the deciphering skills of a cryptographer intends to involve the US in the unfolding drama between Israel and Iran. The situation as Mrs. Hudson would say is 'a bit thick'.
A 30,000 Pound Question: The GBU 57 Enigma
Ah the B 2! A magnificent machine capable of delivering a rather persuasive argument in the form of the GBU 57 Massive Ordnance Penetrator. A weapon I gather designed to burrow into the earth like a particularly determined badger capable of rearranging the foundations of even the most stubborn underground structures. Experts suggest this could be aimed at Iran's nuclear program specifically the Fordow facility. One recalls the phrase 'There is nothing more deceptive than an obvious fact'. What pray tell is the obvious fact in this deadly game?
Whispers in the Dark: Anonymity and Ambiguity
Our sources cloaked in the comforting shroud of anonymity remain frustratingly tight lipped. No numbers no destinations beyond Guam... just the tantalizing hint of impending action. 'Data data data!' I cry! 'I can't make bricks without clay!' The official denial from the Pentagon adds another layer of intrigue to this already complex case. It seems even they are playing their cards close to their chest.
Diego Garcia: The Indian Ocean's Pawn
Diego Garcia a strategically positioned island in the Indian Ocean now becomes a focal point. Apparently this locale is ideally positioned to operate in the Middle East. Prior to last month B 2 bombers graced the location they were replaced by B 52s. This information serves only to deepen the mystery.
The Israeli Iranian Dance: A Deadly Pas de Deux
Meanwhile in the Middle East the dancers continue their deadly pas de deux. Israel claims to have eliminated a veteran Iranian commander while Tehran staunchly refuses to negotiate its nuclear program under duress. Iran contends their program is for peaceful ends. But as I've learned 'The world is full of obvious things which nobody by any chance ever observes'.
Trump's Dilemma: A Two Week Countdown
President Trump a man known for his decisive nature (or at least his perception thereof) has allotted himself a fortnight to ponder the situation. Two weeks to determine whether to plunge the United States into the fray. 'Enough time to see whether or not people come to their senses,' he proclaims. A sentiment I daresay that could be applied to a multitude of international conflicts. All the while tanker aircraft flit across Europe fighter jets amass in the Middle East and an aircraft carrier steams purposefully toward the horizon. The stage is set my dear Watson for a drama of epic proportions. And I for one intend to observe every act with the keenest of eyes.
