“These six B-2 bombers who headed west towards Guam, they would not have reached Iran in time to participate in this strike. So, that suggests that there was an additional B-1 package which may have stolen east of the base of Whiteman Air Force. She said this by speaking with Bret Baier de Fox News on Saturday evening.
