Because the B-52's carry about 70,000 pounds of bombs on each plane..(G model) multiply that by 9 B-52's... 630,000 pounds of bombs.. thats 972 bombs on EACH B-52 mission.. . 84 five-hundred pounders.. and 24 seven- hundred- fifty pounders on each plane........ they fly in flights of 9... code name: ARC LIGHT.. so the proper answer is: because they are trying to hide from 972 bombs!!!
i would also crap my pants...

Hate to tell you this but they never get the chance to crap their pants. Carpet bombing by multiple modern strategic bombers like the B-52 can be likened to an hour during the Battle of the Somme bottled into a thirty second time period.
And yes the B-52 was used extensively during the invasion of Afghanistan.

Hard to hide from an Arc-Light bombing mission.

We aren't bombing "enemies" with B52s now, we are bombing victims of a totalitarian regime that we have chosen to kill so we can steal the oil from thier land.
It is like stealing a raped woman's purse.
That is all "we" are doing.
get that clear
