Thread: Largest non-nuke ever dropped by US

    Well they could be, but I don't have any scientific data to prove it. There is scientific data to show that the IQ "sweet spot" for criminality is around 85. Go lower, less criminality and violence - go higher, less criminality and violence. It just happens that African Americans average IQ is 85. African Americans also have a higher prevalence of the "warrior gene" which leads to more violence. But really, the biggest factor for crime and violence is single motherhood. That is something that could easily and quickly be impacted with some honest discussion and helping to shift the culture and laws that create those problems.

    As far as terrorism, like I said I haven't seen any studies linking low IQ to terrorism but if you have any go ahead and post it. It's an interesting hypothesis. However the only evidence I have put forward is that terrorism is caused by blowback from US intervention in the middle east combined with religious extremism. The low IQ comes into play when the 'refugees' in Europe try to assimilate and all end up on welfare with no chicks and start getting involved in gang raping and such. I've posted videos of Stefan Molyneux going into fits of rage about how much US military violence against these countries leads to terrorism, and all I get back is "I don't have an attention span, his videos are too long, waahhhh!!"

    Then you have the gal to come here and say that I have claimed that US interventions don't cause terrorism? Honestly, if I were a mod, this is the type of $#@! I would be banning people for, that is how egregious it is imo. It makes the forum look bad, it is obfuscation and intellectual dishonesty.

    The fact that the U.S. dropped the MOAB in the same province where De Alencar was killed is probably not a coincidence, said Bill Roggio, of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies.

    “There might have been a degree of payback here as well,” Roggio told Military Times. “There’s certainly nothing wrong with that, especially if you’re killing your enemy.”
    I wonder if Roggio will be this glib when the US starts getting "payback" for this.

    On the plus side, the MSM is finally cheerful, and even ecstatic these days. The MSM that had been angry, scolding, sarcastic, venomous and hysterical for six months is now giddy as they report on the Syria and Afghanistan strikes. It's like they are reporting on the Academy Awards, the Super Bowl, New Years Eve and a new amusement park all at once.

    They hate us for our freedoms. Better to fight them there than The Homeland. What do you like ISIS or something? They have to do this to beat ISIS.

    A good portion of the YouTube comments. I've said it and I'm going to say it again. Turn out the lights, the party's over. Thoughts of liberty around here ain't happening. It's like an ant trying to push a watermelon FFS.

    After 13 years of continuous unsuccessful war between the largest, most powerful military on the planet versus a ragtag coalition of farmers, Washington's most "brilliant" decides the ultimate solution is to drop the largest bomb in the world on some shacks, at a cost of $20 million for the bomb and operation.

    BOMB RADIUS DAMAGE

    * Up to 1,000 yards: Obliterates everything.

    * Up to 1 mile: Knocks people, tents, light buildings, cars and jeeps over within 1-mile radius.

    * Up to 1.7 miles: shock wave kills people, causes severe damage to buildings, equipment, blows trucks, tanks off road.

    * Up to 2 miles: causes deafness.

    * Up to 5 miles: shakes ground, breaks windows.

    * Up to 30 miles: 10,000 foot high mushroom cloud visible.

    Yup, that sounds right.
    30 foot long MOAB is "thermobaric" . . .
    a 1000ft radius of inferno, and with a thin aluminum shell so that the bomb's design doesn't obstruct the bomb's shock wave, in order
    to be more "Hiroshima-esque".

    Recall that the Hiroshima shock wave reflected off the mountains and the reflected blast still destroyed brick buildings on the mountain rebound.

    Did you see the woman interviewing Trump about the Syria' strike? She is smiling. She loves the war. the MSM and its owners love the war, they love that Trump is their puppet now. Watch Trump's face. He seems deflated. Watch. Compare with just a week ago.
    It is just very high probability Trump was compromised. The deep state managed to make Trump their puppet and Trump knows it. Just think about who is immune to the deep state power to grind you to puppet pulp?

    So, uh, MOAB, Mother of ALL Bombs...

    Forget the ‘mother of all bombs,’ meet the Russian-made ‘daddy’
    https://www.rt.com/viral/384743-moab...a-father-bomb/


    (The bomb is four times more powerful than the one dropped by the US in Afghanistan. © Reuters / Reuters )

    The US boasts that its GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb (MOAB), known as the ‘Mother of all bombs’, is the largest ever non-nuclear bomb used in combat but, don’t be fooled, Russia possess something far superior. Kids, meet Daddy.

    The Aviation Thermobaric Bomb of Increased Power, known as the ‘Father of all bombs’ (FOAB), was developed by Russia in 2007 and eclipses its US rival in both power and efficiency.

    It can inflict a 44 ton-yield when detonated, compared to the 11-ton-yield of the mother. Unlike its US counterpart though it’s less hefty, weighing in at 7,100kg compared to 8,200kg.

    The FOAB explodes mid-air, combining with atmospheric oxygen to extend the blast radius as it vaporizes targets and collapses structures. Gases are burnt within the vicinity of the blast producing a vacuum, which can drag objects in towards the center of the explosion.

    Following its 2007 test, the location of which is unknown, the targeted area was left with scorched earth described as looking “more like the surface of the moon.”

    Alexander Rukshin, a deputy chief of the Russian armed forces, said at the time it showed “its effectiveness and capabilities are comparable to nuclear weapons. At the same time use of this weapon does not damage or pollute the environment, like a nuclear weapons.”
