It said it had found a U.S. Navy contract on the Internet for shipping hundreds of bunker-buster bombs to Diego Garcia, a tiny island in the Indian Ocean that houses an American air base.

Deep in the story, the Sunday Herald conceded that it was only the military making the decision to stock the weapons and that it would still remain for President Obama to make any actual decision for war.
