Make it as picture perfect as the Raid On Entebbe where the Israeli’s only significant losses were Bibi’s brother Yonatan Netanyahu and a woman who was hospitalized at the time.
And so why would the U.S. or Israel use a MOAB? How stupid that would be and just the reason it wouldn't.
So you are saying, fly a relatively large and slow cargo plane over miles of hostile airspace to drop a single bomb that is not really a penetrator anyway.
Really? Do you like getting many U.S. aircrew's killed or captured in hostile territory? Because the name is “cool”?
Really? Plenty of other munitions delivered by other air craft that might be better choices. Also more likely to be selected by our armed forces than a “cool” sounding bomb for it's name.
REALLY!
Isn't that what Bush said after 9/11 ... we don't need anyone's permission to defend ourselves? Same should apply to Israel. If Iran gets nukes Israel would be in grave danger every second ... forever. If that's not self defense, I don't know what is.

Let’s hope 0bama surprises us on this one as well and let’s Israel do what it needs to do.
