What is going on at Diego Garcia?

UPDATE: I was wrong about the B-52 being used only for nuclear strikes, though they were developed primarily for that purpose. This has been corrected.
The following was posted to a popular forum. I believe it is credible, and was probably a top secret “OOPS”:

Something big is going on, the island has more aircraft than anytime in the last 9 years. They have blocked off some access roads and are now parking aircraft on the road. Barriers have been set up around the aircraft areas. Temporary barracks and hangers are popping up everywhere. A tent city full of AF and Navy maintenance personnel has also been set up.
I have never seen B1s and B2s there at the same time. Actually I have never seen more than 1 there at a time.
Security is nuts I had to show my id at least 8 times a day
My coworker is former AF and said they are like that when nukes are around. We counted over a dozen air refueling tankers on the ground. The airfield had a take off or landing every 15 minutes, very busy. When we flew out we waited in line for quite a while. We never had to wait in the past.
The Navy had the docks full of ships and 6 to 8 more were moored just off shore. We watched many pallets of bombs being off loaded from one ship.
There were a bunch of B-52’s coming in that were painted flat black. I have not seen that before.
So are we headed to war again?”
