« Funny buggers | Main | The Devil's Note » I was wondering this tooYesterday you may have seen an article about a B-52 that mistakenly flew across the US armed with nukes. Seemed like an odd incident. How would anyone find out, and why so much fuss? Felt a little like a leak, but what did it mean? Larry Johnson has some interesting speculation: Barksdale Air Force Base is being used as a jumping off point for Middle East operations. Gee, why would we want cruise missile nukes at Barksdale Air Force Base. Can't imagine we would need to use them in Iraq. Why would we want to preposition nuclear weapons at a base conducting Middle East operations? His final point was to observe that someone on the inside obviously leaked the info that the planes were carrying nukes. A B-52 landing at Barksdale is a non-event. A B-52 landing with nukes. That is something else. By fnord12 | September 6, 2007, 4:51 PM | Liberal Outrage |
