A former top adviser to United States President Barack Obama has called on Washington to provide Israel with B-52 bombers, following the nuclear agreement reached last week between Iran and six world powers, according to the Defense News website.

"To have a credible military option, it's not enough to say all options are on the table. We have to be much more blunt," said Dennis Ross, a former senior diplomat and adviser to several presidents, in an interview on Thursday.

The B-52 Stratofortress bomber is outfitted to deliver 30,000-pound (15 ton) GBU-57 Massive Ordnance Penetrators, also known as bunker-busters. Professional opinion holds that such weapons would be needed to destroy Iran's heavily-fortified, underground nuclear facilities.

The MIC and its war pig operatives must be really upset.

1. i have a better idea, let's not

a B52, more than any other plane, says 'USA' not matter what it's markings are

2. Better than that, let's give them the F-35 program and have them pay the cost overruns.

They'll soon be too poor to make war.

Hey, that rhymes!

3. Are the B-52's to pick up and dispose of Israel's 200 nuclear weapons so as to create a nuclear-free Middle East?

Former generals and advisors giving military and political advice based on media reports is like former psychiatrists giving formal psychiatric and medical advise on media reports.

4. How about we give them Dennis Ross?

They could drop him on Iran if they really wanted.
