US giant bunker-buster bomb project rushed since Iran's Qom site discovered

Yep,
Drop it on that damned black rock when the Haj is in full force and a few million vermin are strolling around it.

I have a hard time imagining Hussein initiating a military action against muslims, given his obvious sympathies towards them. Iraq and Afghanistan are one thing, since these were operations started under Bush and simply carried on. But starting a new action against muslims on his watch just doesn’t seem credible.

[Old Teufel Hunden]

They could test it on the studios at MSNBC. See if it will penetrate Olberman’s bunker...

[FES0844]

Exactly...get them before they get us.

[ThunderSleeps]

...the number of bombs rolling off the production line increased from four to ten - a rush job triggered in May by...

Does the idea of "rushing" any process involving explosives make the hairs on the back of anyone else's neck stand up?

[Starrgaizr]

Time to sell Israel a B-2 in a bomber-for-clunker deal.

[Patrsup]

I have to agree - he doesn’t have the gumption to make this happen. He appears to be one of those who watch things happen and then reacts. The only somewhat bright side to this is that hopefully Israel is getting this technology on the sly.

I think they will almost have to act preemptively because if they don’t - they are finished. Iran is not goofing around.

It’s really sad when an idiot like IamAnutJob has more credibility then the President of the US

[Mr. K]

Yes!

I believe this!!

since we only found out about this new site last week, Obambi must have gone back in time to May and ordered faster production!

Yeah.

That’s the ticket.

(doesn’t the stupid media know SOME of us can add?)

[thethirddegree]

Now all we need is a real President with the b@lls to use them.

[Bringbackthedraft]

If it get to the point where we have to use it, the IRANIANS WILL BE TIPPED OFF, COUNT ON IT.

WE, the public, found out about it last week. The military has known about it for a few years. The DARPA contingent has been working a lot of long hours this past summer and most of last year.

There is a LOT more information out there not for public consumption that we won't know about.

[Turborules]

regardless, of their effectiveness at total destruction, the pucker factor for the moderates in Iran will loom very large...NEDA and her friends will be let loose, million will turn out the almadinajads by the thousands...

[Turborules]

Israel has the Abomb and will usr it first...you can bet on it!

[Overtaxed Patriot]

I hope Barry doesn’t find out about this information. He’ll put a stop to it.

[noname07718]

That’ll leave a mark!

[GonzoGOP]

Orbital systems that depart orbit are unarmed with high density penetrating tips and are steered to impact at over 15,000 mph.

I wonder if they could put those on a Trident. Talk about never seeing it coming. You might pick up a sat launch with enough time to do something about it. But submarine based Rods from the Gods is probably the nastiest thing for the worlds tyrants.

[G Larry]

Better check with the lib’s in the Senate.....we wouldn’t want to develop something that might work!

[princess leah]

Whatever happened to the MOAB bomb or is this the same thing?

"OK right there this story went unbelievable."

My belief issues started when I read the source was DEBKA.
