  1. This is not the largest non nuclear bomb America has. We have the GBU 57B missile that weighs 30,000 lbs. We probably even have some bigger than this that are classified top secret.
  2. Given the history of American "friendly fire", I hope that they didn't drop it on an American forward observation post.
  3. "The message that "any nation" can take is if you violate "NORMS", international agreements, fail to live up to commitments, are a threat others at some point a response is likely". ANY nation? Obviously no. The "Exceptional Nation" feels free and justified to break international law whenever it chooses. The hypocrisy is breath-taking and only continues because the American people are either dumb or radicalised just as deeply as any Islamic nutcase.
  4. At 19,000lb It's the largest non nuclear bomb.

    Apart from Russia's, which is 44,000lb.

  6. 50 tons and 100 tons tnt bomb and a super-jet is needed
  7. Should've dropped it on the Kremiln.
  8. Apparently if tax dollars are not being used to house, clothe, feed intolerant Muslim refugees or build mosques, or buy prayer matts, magic books of murder, head curtains or pay for extra police for inbred savage Muslim violence or rebuild what refugees destroy, you can afford to build giant fucking bombs.
  9. You are not tempted asshole, you did quote him and you are as obscene as those who delight in marching in line and file to the strains of military music who Albert Einstein described as beneath contempt.
