U.S. Flies Two B-52H Bombers Over Middle East To “Reassure Allies”

U.S. Flies Two B-52H Bombers Over Middle East To "Reassure Allies"

Click to see full-size image

On March 7th, two US B-52H Stratofortress strategic bombers flew over the Middle East, as a show of strength against Iran.

The US military’s Central Command said the two B-52s flew over the region accompanied by military aircraft from nations including Israel, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. It marked the fourth-such bomber deployment into the Middke East this year and the second under President Joe Biden.

Flight-tracking data showed the two B-52s flew out of Minot Air Base in North Dakota, something Central Command did not mention in its statement on the flights.

Iran, as usual, wasn’t directly mentioned by CENTCOM’s statement. According to it, the flight was to “deter aggression and reassure partners and allies of the US military’s commitment to security in the region.”

This goes directly opposite of US President Joe Biden’s claim that he wants to return to the Iran Nuclear Deal and have a sort of normalization in relations.

Biden expressed a desire to return to the deal if Iran honors the deal’s limits on its nuclear program. However, tensions remain high after militias in Iraq — likely backed by Iran — continue to target American interests.

In late February, Biden ordered the launch of an airstrike just over the border into Syria in retaliation, joining every American president from Ronald Reagan onward who has ordered a bombardment of countries in the Middle East.

On the same day, Beirut-based channel Al-Mayadeen aired footage of the Helios Ray, a Bahamian-flagged roll-on, roll-off vehicle cargo ship hit by the blasts February 26 in the Gulf of Oman.

The grainy footage included areas blurred out on the video, likely coordinates and other information displayed by the Iranian military drone. The footage at one point showed what appeared to be a hole in the side of the vessel.

Al-Mayadeen did not say when the footage was shot, nor explain the circumstance by which the Iranian drone was following the ship. The U.S. Navy’s Bahrain-based 5th Fleet, which patrols the Mideast and often has tense encounters with Iran, declined to comment on the footage.

Off Gaza’s coast, three fishermen were killed in a reported Hamas misfire, according to Israeli media.

At the same time, Arab-language media reported that it was an Israeli strike that killed the fishermen.

Meanwhile,after 37 days of blockage, Ypg decided to sell oil to Assad regime who supposed to govern his country 😁.Today Assad regimes Hussam Qatirji’s company with 80 trucks entered the Ypg region and transported the oil to Homs rafinery.Last effective Saa strikes worked.Even Ypg understand that these dumb Fsa can not achieve anything without colossal support or even with support.

Assad must stay

Hahahahhahahahahaha all they have been doing for years now is “show of force” they know they cant actually do jack shit to iran without israel getting wiped out and pretty much starting WW3

This McKenzie Junior needs a bitc#slap to wake up. Since Trump left, more than half of turmoil in the region is generated by this guy just so he feels important. Maybe he feels CENTCOM commander is too small a job for his bubble head.

Show of force? My foot!!

“Oh Wow, they are so scared now” LMFAO.
We all saw what happened to that drone they send into Iran borders and Iranian also could have shot down the air plane that was controlling that spy drone. The Iranian told them to fuk off and that’s what yankess did.
Also, remember (2016 U.S.–Iran “naval incident”) if they entry Iran or attack they have it coming for themselves.
“Show of force” and guess what Zion were with them. Those Zion and Wahhabi better know, they not gonna survive Iran attack. They don’t have any good ADS or having a lot of lands.

To be fair to the Iranians the 1979 Revolution was the result of decades under a CIA backed brutal dictator who was throwing lavish celebrations while the people were starving, as well as torture and execution by the scumbag’s ‘Savak’ secret police. All because Kikedom couldn’t stand the idea of Mossadegh doing what leaders are supposed to do, ensure the nation’s resources pay the locals first.

But yeah if they could pull out of the theology and become more secular like Lebanon while still keeping upright its middle finger at Kikedom that would be great.

Mentioning ‘Pagan Persia’ reminded me of a rant I saw on MeWe about how the Abrahamic faiths destroyed Europe and the Americas starting with Christianity and setting the groundwork for the spineless masses without honor and courage that we see today in these regions.

The CIA run feminist movement took advantage of women’s grievances that was thousands of years in the making as a side effect of the Abrahamic mind virus. Pagans had a much more healthier system of recognizing men and women are different, but one sex was not more ‘better’ than the other.

Just as a 3-pin plug and a 3-pin socket are meant to be different, but both are needed for the appliance to work.

Iran was actually doing great as a secular society but then the bloody CIA interfered with Mossadegh and put in a brutal puppet dictator that left the Iranians little choice but to embrace the theology in 1979.

The world has had a lot of potential for a very different timeline that has gone to waste because of a hidden enemy that most have been brainwashed to call ‘anti-semite’ for mentioning them. Which is laughable because ‘semite’ = Arab

So the circus show carries on and all the informed and intelligent people can do is use their brains to take notes of the slow-motion disaster rather than contribute to building a better future. The more intelligent among us are also the wasted unused potential as being able to think for oneself these days is branded as ‘hate speech’.

since the world would be happy to see the jews in palestine (and elsewhere as well) being on the extinct list, it will be required that turkey and iran join forces with the other goes without saying to get the result the world will applaud. a few minor obstacles in the way, idlib and isis, the kurds and the stolen oil but once those are settled the jews better pack their bags and be on their diaspora 2.0.

Iran has better stuff than North Vietnam had in Operation Linebacker. B-52 is a heavy bomber but like every other component is a tool of which strengths and weaknesses. B-52’s strengths has the largest capacity bomb load of 30 tonnes or 6 x 5 tonne fully loaded transport trucks equivalent, larger than the Tu-95 Bear.

But this large load means its not an MiG-31.

Diversity quotas and homosexual deviants that are non-existent in Eurasia’s forces means the half the air force are made of milquetoast types who do not have the aggressiveness and physical and mental fortitude of the WW2, Korean, and Vietnam era generations of the US armed forces. The National Guard acting as Biden’s Praetorian Guard in DC are clearly shown in recent images to be overweight, poorly fed and are clearly not ready to fight even a short term conflict.

Also Iran has demonstrated it can despite sanctions put out advancements in technology:

” The challenge was to make a 2”x2” concrete cube with the highest possible compressive strength. Among the competitors at this internationally diverse school was a team from the University of Tehran. Jay takes up the story.

*”I designed a 2”x2” concrete cube with a compressive strength of 16,000 psi [pounds per square inch] at 28-days, a relatively high strength as standard concrete is on the order of 3,000 psi, typically. Now, The University of Tehran made several cubes between 50,000 to 60,000 psi, and possible stronger! I thought the aggregate to be made from quartz, and I also remember some steel fibers in the mix. These cubes exploded at failure, finally damaging the compression machine on the third or fourth cube (that machine was substantial, made for much larger samples). So, keep in mind this is unreinforced concrete (save the steel fibers) at an early age. Concrete becomes stronger, sometimes by orders of magnitude, over time.
*

Jay Googled the sponsoring professor of the Iranian students, and found that he has an extensive resume in the fields of ultra high strength concrete and nuclear reactors. So it’s far from impossible that the Iranian nuclear industry has access to some pretty advanced technology in this area – and given the repeated threats to bomb nuclear installations, we can expect them to be well protected.”

Tu-160 has the largest bomb capacity.
World record holder, for that, it’s also the biggest, heaviest, and fastest strategic bomber. There is no analog.
Tu-95 Bear is light on bomb load, next to the B-52.
MiG-31 makes a good fighter escort for
Tu-160. It’s fast enough the big bomber can’t outrun it.
