But one building is still intact, and part of the other one's still standing, and we didn't whack the fort, either.

Let's schedule a follow-up appointment.

Come on. Every good experiment needs a control.

those are some mighty conspicuous looking 'caves'!
with that 'fort' are they expecting a camel attack?
obviously, they DON'T know what 'camouflage' means! (is that why bin wears the jungle jacket? yeah, LOTS of jungle in the desert. lol!)

more bombs, please!!

This has to be a failure. I see man made obects in the after picture. By the way, who makes forts? That is sooo 1700's

Don't hold your breath waiting for the fort to come down. It is a historic building. It also has about as much tactical value as a Brown Bess musket.

Oh gosh, it does look like they missed a barrack. Gee, I bet it's been pretty nippy nights there. Long about the first snow fall I bet a lot of guys are going to tuck up in there to get out of the wind some night. Trick or treat, mofo.

Yeah, but fort walls are still not allowed.

BTW, we know that they got all the good stuff out of there last month.

Hmmm... what does the B61 Mod 11 do against buildings on the surface?

Yep. Looks like another half dozen precision weapons are in order.

Check out the giant crater where it just missed finishing off the rest of that building.

The fort is a facade, out of Hollywood.

You gotta love what is left of the first barracks and the building which was "above" it.

I like that big crater at the end of the second building. Only missed by a few feet. Will have to circle around and try it again.

High precision.

And so environmentally friendly as well.
It looks like no trees, vegetation, or wild life was harmed in the making of the "after"
photo.
But then, it appears there were no trees, plants or wild woodland creatures to be harmed
in the "before" photo.

I think we need to get Marty Stouffer and Jack Hanna on the job...are the Taliban/Osama's Boys
a bunch of mean guys who have already been unfriendly to the Earth in Afghanistan?

The Taliban will probably say that either they were planning a fishing pond there anyway, or that a cute puppy orphanage had just been constructed there.

I have never seen a country MORE in need of astroturf.

Actually, that looks like the Livingston Campus of Rutgers University. It's about time somebody levelled that dump.
