CIA Director of Operations: Nukes Probably Intended For Mideast

Odd ‘Mishandling’ of Missiles Has America’s Patriots Suspicious

AFP -

Larry Johnson, former director of operations with the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency, recently spoke with American Free Press concerning the suspicious transport of six nuclear weapons from Minot Air Force Base in North Dakota to the B-52 base in Barksdale, La. Here is how The Military Times described the incident:

A B-52 bomber mistakenly loaded with five nuclear warheads flew from Minot Air Force Base, N.D., to BarksdaleAir Force Base, La., on Aug. 30, resulting in an Air Force-wide investigation, according to three officers who asked not to be identified. The B-52 was loaded with Advanced Cruise Missiles, part of a Defense Department effort to decommission 400 of the ACMs. The nuclear warheads should have been removed at Minot before being transported to Barksdale, the officers said.

The missiles were mounted onto the pylons of the bomber’s wings. In subsequent news reports the number of missing nukes was upgraded from five to six. Transporting live nuclear weapons via bombers (such as the B-52 that was used) has been prohibited by the government for safety reasons. They are supposed to be carried on specially designed transports.

However, Johnson spoke candidly to AFP. According to his sources, this may be part of a covert plan to use nukes to strike Iran. Johnson pointed out that Barksdale AFB is the jumping-off point for Middle East Operations, in particular for any long-range B-52 bombing missions.

Nuclear weapons are not easily mistaken for conventional warheads and the protocol involved in handling these weapons is extremely strict and stringent so as to preclude the possibility of any mistakes.

The six nuclear weapons were transported to Barksdale with the intention of sending them toward Iran rather than to an Air Force base in Texas where—according to the military—they were to be “decommissioned,” Johnson’s sources believe. It is now being speculated that the news has been leaked by unnamed U.S. officers because they were trying to prevent Armageddon.

Asked if he believed the current war as well as any future war with Iran was due to the power of the Israeli lobby, Johnson’s answer was a small chortle and “oh, yeah.” Johnson’s views were independently echoed to another AFP reporter by a career Navy officer during a conversation which occurred in Locust Grove.
