    Exclamation Largest non nuclear bomb ever used in combat dropped in Afghanistan this morning

    US drops largest non-nuclear bomb in Afghanistan

    http://www.cnn.com/2017/04/13/politi...omb/index.html

    Washington (CNN)The US military has dropped an enormous bomb in Afghanistan, according to four US military officials with direct knowledge of the mission.

    A GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb, nicknamed MOAB, was dropped at 7 p.m. local time Thursday, the sources said.

    The MOAB is also known as the "mother of all bombs." A MOAB is a 21,600-pound, GPS-guided munition that is America's most powerful non-nuclear bomb.

    The bomb was dropped by an MC-130 aircraft, operated by Air Force Special Operations Command, according to the military sources.

    They said the target was ISIS tunnels and personnel in the Achin district of the Nangarhar province.

    The military is currently assessing the damage. Gen. John Nicholson, commander of US forces in Afghanistan, signed off on the use of the bomb, according to the sources.

    This is the first time a MOAB has been used in the battlefield, according to the US officials. This munition was developed during the Iraq War.
    Another mark of a tyrant is that he likes foreigners better than citizens, and lives with them and invites them to his table; for the one are enemies, but the Others enter into no rivalry with him. - Aristotle's Politics Book 5 Part 11

    Since then, Russia has tested its "Father of All Bombs", which is claimed to be four times as powerful as the MOAB.

    Tried to replace socialist Obamacare with socialist Trumpcare. Flipped back to liking low interest rates (this is not getting much attention, but it should). Called the market a big ugly bubble as a candidate, now taking credit for the bubble.

    You mean future terrorists. Even ron paul would agree, that the families of people we bomb, have a higher chance of becoming terrorists.
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    No. Both you and Ron Paul are wrong. You see, after a long period of alt right education, I have learned that minor environmental factors such as their entire family being murdered are not responsible for the actions of people. Those people were already genetically terrorists before we bombed their families.

    Only thing that could make a MOAB greater is if it was filled with "depleted" uranium so it would be a dirty bomb too. MAGA! MAGA! MAGA MAGA MAGA!

    Where did you hear that it was a town? There's a lot of barren mountains in that area, too. (not saying he didn't - just hadn't read that)

    They said the target was ISIS tunnels and personnel in the Achin district of the Nangarhar province.
    I'll say they're Achin'!!!

    Eh, if there aren't any videos of it on CNN, it doesn't count.
