ISIS hammered as US drops biggest non-nuclear weapon ever

The GBU-43 bomb weighs 21,600 pounds, is 30 feet long, contains 11 tons of explosives...

Wouldn't 11 tons be at least 22,000 pounds?

OK, how about Mohammedans Obliterated, America’s Back!

I rarely watch FNC, but a lot of hours are ghey there...they still have Shempy, for example. Bret is lacking in testosterone, too.

[V1Rotate]

I got snakes and sparklers.

Why no “FAE’s” for poppy problem?

DoD says that the MOAB was not revenge for the death of Green Beret Staff Sergeant Mark De Alencar, who was killed in the same region on Saturday - but other reports indicate that it so happens that Green Berets rode along and deployed the weapon.

RIP SSG De Alencar

I notice the Never Trumpers are quiet tonight. Haven’t seen a one of them...yet.

We need to build the reverse-poem of Rudyard Kipling’s for the soldier of Afghanistan.

[Ingtar]

It’s not the size that counts, but what you do with it.

U.S. dropped its largest non-nuclear weapon after targeting ISIS in Afghanistan.

Couldn't happen to a more deserving bunch.

[dhs12345]

I thought that we dropped one on Saddam.

[Spacetrucker]

That “surface” blast so dramatically compresses the earth beneath it that even roaches living up to 100 yds underneath the surface would be splat.

MOAB = Meting Out Asswhippings, Bigly.

Post of the day, sir - +2 internets to you :-)

[Osage Orange]

We have dropped MOAB’s before..............

[varon]

Trump pledged in 2015 that if he became president he would 'bomb the s**t out of ' ISIS.

I wish someone could have painted TRUMP POWER on the MOAB and taken a picture of it before loading it into the plane............

[Wpin]

“I have (yet another) dumb question: if the muslims are bunkered in tunnels, what good does a large blast on the surface do?”

Think of the tunnels as straws...all that energy pushing through them...then literally sucking the air out of them...not to mention collapse of walls and ceilings. This is the perfect weapon for tunnels and caves.

[Windflier]

So what kind of damage did it cause ISIS?

Trump may have written "The Art of The Deal", but he's now employing Sun Tzu's "The Art of War".

Between the 59 Tomahawk missiles and the one MOAB, he's scrambled their brains. That's what he's done to ISIS.

[umgud]

Shoulda known somebody on FR would clear this up. Thanks.

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Agreed.

While we’ll always be playing, ‘Whack A Mole’ to some extent around the globe, the rise of ISIS is 100% SQUARELY on the heads of 0bama, Kerry & That Beotch.

So, SO TIRED of Socialist Democrat Party Members effing up some chunk of the world - and then leaving the REST of us to PAY for it, AND clean it up.

Democrats cannot regain power. Ever.
