I say send a few more ,then send some to the grumpy Asian dude !
Daisy Cutter (BLU-82) was a 15,000 pound bomb. This one is 21,000 pounds, designed years after the Daisy. The MOAB (massive ordnance air blast) isn't a penetrator but was designed for soft targets. Only fifteen plus two test devices were built, so I guess fourteen remain. These cost $16,000,000. each.how many daisy cutters is this bad boy ?

My understanding is the compressive force alone will crush anybody in it's path, can you imagine the force sent threw the tunnels?like I said wouldn't you want something that penetrated to the level of their tunnels
Its the symbolism thats important. Just like Doolittle's Tokyo raid,,,really didnt inflict **** for damage, cost a lot, lost a lot, BUT it sent the MESSAGE, "We can get to You, You fuckers!"$16 million and only reporting 36 killed. It doesn't seem like it was that worth while of a target.

You can bet this was the right ordnance for what they wanted to accomplish.My understanding is that the tunnels in that area are typically very shallow, so this sort of bomb is ideal

The "bargain" is that we simultaneously accomplished tactical and strategic objectives. Tactical - killing the rats and blowing up their tunnels and ammo/supplies in the tunnels. Strategic - The U.S. is back. The President acted decisively and put the Commie in Russia, the raghead in Tehran, and the inbred in North Korea on notice.Well, compared to 59 cruise missiles in Syria @ about $1,000,000 each... I'd count this as a bargain.

Trump was trying to heal the huge divide of his supporters, count me as one, after the Syria strike. So, he went after the Islamic extremists to fulfill a campaign promise.
