US President Barack Obama has acted on North Korea's Supreme leader Kim Jong-Un’s bluff by deploying very powerful supersonic bombers to bases near North Korea - just days after the dictator Kim Jong-un declared war on America.
The North Korean leader accused Mr Obama of “crossing the red line” after introducing trade sanctions last week, and promised the “toughest countermeasures” in response.
Obama in uncharacteristic fashion has deployed supersonic strike bombers to bases near North Korea - daring Kim Jong-Un to attack first.
Around 300 US airmen have also been deployed alongside the B-1B Lancer bombers to Guam, a US territory in the Pacific Ocean within striking range of the North Korea’s capital of Pyongyang.
A spokesman for the US Airforce said: “The B-1 units bring a unique perspective and years of repeated combat and operational experience from the Central Command theatre to the Pacific.
“They will provide a significant rapid global strike capability that enables our readiness and commitment to deterrence, offers assurance to our allies, and strengthens regional security and stability in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.”
