From what I've seen, sending B2 stealth bombers to Guam seems like a classic example of the US flexing its muscles without actually saying they're about to fight. Every time tensions rise, especially with places like Iran, the government tends to move some serious military gear—like these bombers—closer to the action, even if they insist there's no real intention to attack. In my experience watching the news, it's almost like a way to send a message: "Hey, we're ready if you push us, so maybe don't." I remember when stuff got intense with North Korea a few years back, similar stuff happened.

Of course, the official word is always that it's just routine or "no orders" for military action, but you can't help but wonder if that's the whole truth. Moving bombers that can carry massive bombs to a spot like Guam definitely feels way more serious than just routine business. I've read that this kind of move can put pressure on other countries' governments, kinda like high-stakes chess. Honestly, it makes me think there's always more going on than they let on, and sometimes I wish they'd just be straight with us.
