-Nukes are always being transported - How do you think they get to Minot to begin with? The strange thing is, the DoD never talks about the transportation of nuclear warheads, so whats with plastering this all over the news now?
-Lastly, isn't this interesting that this happens a week after Russia resumes their long range bomber flights?

I agree with you. I was wondering why the "noise" about this now?
I have been by several Air Force bases (including Plattsburg during the real cold war), sub bases and lived in NYC when there were live Nike missiles based near by.
As pointed out, "we" generally do not say much about nukes. So why now?
