THE United States has dropped a Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb – the largest non-nuclear weapon in its arsenal – on an ISIS tunnel target in Afghanistan.

The bomb was dropped in Afghanistan's Nangarhar province, the Pentagon has confirmed.

The blast radius is believed to be over 300 meters and the weapon is described as "the father of all bombs".

It is the very first time the weapon has been used in combat.

That's got to be about the most tabloidy website I've seen. It ranks up there with Infowars.

You appear to be unduly impressed by aesthetics.

How about accuracy?

'The blast radius is believed to be over 300 meters and the weapon is described as "the father of all bombs".'

MOAB is stands for Mother Of All Bombs. The Russians have developed one that they claim is 4 times as powerful and that one is called the "Father Of All Bombs".

These are thermobaric bombs, something that came up recently on another thread.

Seriously, it's a bad article. It leaves readers less informed overall than if they hadn't read the article at all.

Trump is allowing the generals to do something Obama never did.

That is, the commanders decide what to do and then go ahead and do it.

"Assign responsibility and delegate authority!"

“You da man,” Donald – “Git ‘er done” …

First use of a weapon we've kept in reserve in the arsenal since 2003?

I think Trump did give the order to use it.

That mushroom cloud image was a message too. For Iran, for NKorea. For Assad.

And of course the Pentagon has many many plans for using our weapons against our enemies. That's their job, to be ready to attack anything and everything if they're ordered to.

Nope….not Trump, the GC in Afghanistan made the decision.

I told you Trump was “assigning responsibility and delegating authority.”

Here is but one of the many places that I have seen these types of remarks:
