 U.S. Military Dispatches Pair of B-1B Lancers to Drop Live Payload on Korean Peninsula
Story by Samuel Short • 19h


Tensions are escalating on the Korean Peninsula as the United States and South Korea conduct live munitions drops over the peninsula on Wednesday for the first time in seven years.

The Defense Visual Information Distribution Service reported that two U.S. Air Force B-1B Lancers and two Republic of Korea Air Force F-15Ks used live GBU-38 munitions on multiple targets at the Pilsung Range to demonstrate their combined ability to provide air support and precision strikes in the event of war.
 
This demonstration occurs with news last week from South Korea that it will suspend a reproachment deal signed with North Korea in 2018 aimed at easing tensions.

This suspension came after North Korea flew over 1,000 trash balloons to the South beginning on May 28. The balloons contained manure, cigarette butts, and scraps of paper and cloth, but no hazardous materials, according to The Associated Press.

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Biden's puppet master must feel the public's knowledge of the military's ineptitude is gaining traction and some display of force was needed to divert attention. :pondering:
