Five men were arrested, all of them British nationals from London, who were then all released on bail the very next day.

RAF Fairford is a British base, but it's where the US Air Force parks a significant portion of its B-1 bomber fleet, which are the planes that were used in strikes against Iran earlier this year.
Claudia FarhartHOST

So the plot thickens.
Claudia FarhartHOST

Ben, you've been trying to make sense of all of this for us.
Vic MatusHOST

But this is where, for example, the B-2 Lancers are.
Vic MatusHOST
41:47
I think the B-1 Lancers, excuse me, the B-2 Spirits maybe, that are used in operations in Iran.
Vic MatusHOST
41:57
So that's why that was particularly important.

They were charged as terrorists.
Benny JohnsonHOST

They were charged attempting to breach a Fairfield Air Force base where the B-1 Lancer bombers take off and bomb Iran.
Benny JohnsonHOST

Now, the British government has released these men who they claim are British citizens, but they won't give the origins of where they're actually from.
Benny JohnsonHOST
16:38
What has happened in England? Why would you release men that are under the suspicion of terrorism against the United States? Now, our own Marco Rubio and Donald Trump have said we've been monitoring this, and that there was a foreign entanglement, and there was potentially foreign intervention here.
Mario NawfalHOST
28:50
There's multiple bombers there.
Mario NawfalHOST
28:51
I think there were B-52s before, but there's B-1 Lancers now.
Larry JohnsonGUEST
28:55
Yeah.

The B-1, the one that took off a few days ago when the Houthi attack that was imminent, we talked about it, took off from the Fairford base, if I'm not mistaken.

They would do that kind of a red cell test, which could be highly embarrassing, and they're going to try to get all the way to aircraft, for example.
speaker_2GUEST
5:29
They would do that at a base somewhere in Kansas, not a B1 Lancer base in England.
speaker_2GUEST
5:38
It's just not going to happen.
speaker_2GUEST

And the other giveaway is that it's not a red cell operation.

Fairford is one of only two bases in Europe that can host all three of America's long-range bombers, the B-1 Lancer, the B-2 Spirit, and the B-52 Stratofortress.

Using Fairford would halve the time those bombers need to spend in the air and cut fuel costs.
Chris BurnettGUEST
13:45
Whenever we are visiting in another country, we're bound by a status of forces agreement or diplomatic notes, which means we have to rely heavily on local law enforcement, on local host nation security.

And the fact in this case that we have B-1 Lancers, and these are long-range bombers, the fact that we had this kind of a reaction, whether they were radicalized online and punk kids or they're a part of a larger network, it really, that remains to be seen.
Chris BurnettGUEST
14:16
But I would say that the fact that they got this close And the fact that they had to charge them under the Explosives Act in the UK tells me that whether they were amateurish or this is a part of a larger network, this was a very serious threat.
Chris BurnettGUEST
14:30
This was an appropriate response.
Benny JohnsonHOST

That were arrested.
Benny JohnsonHOST

because they were sitting outside of an Air Force base where we fly our B-1 Lancers and they had trucks filled with bombs.
Benny JohnsonHOST

So I don't know like what the explanation is there other than they were going to drive the trucks filled with bombs into the Air Force base.
