The military dropped the 'Mother of All Bombs,' its largest non-nuclear bomb on an ISIS tunnel complex in eastern Afghanistan. But why now and now what? #Tucker
Pardon, but when is the last time you ever hard of a terrorist group being murdered out of existence? It's generally thought to be impossible. They'll recruit more, probably a lot more, than the 40 or so lost. It's good to think this will stop them, but only in a narrow tactical sense.
War Doggo you are one of the few comments I have seen from a anti trump person that understands that bombing Isis is a good thing. I am glad some people still have brain cells
www.foxnews.com/world/2016/08/10/nearly-45000-isis-linked-fighters-killed-in-past-2-years-us-military-official-says.html Yeah, nobody was trying before now. All those people must have just accidentally died since there were no airstrikes or fighting of any kind happening against ISIS.
mark loper WaWaaWaa.. do you still have tears left after 6 months of crying because President Trump won?? your a LOSER so just except your fate. you will always be a loser
On an empty cave and with no evidence of terrorists being there. The willful acceptance of any answer that makes you happy is ignorant and blatantly stupid.
I feel he is going to get us killed because he's going to put us in war and all the countries are going to go against us so if he's putting his foot down he's killing us
Okay, please learn the facts first. M.O.A.B. stands for Massive Ordnance Air Blast. Not Mother Of All Bombs as you stated it 'literally' does.Also, learn what literally means. Mother of all bombs is what some people nicknamed it just like the Thunderbolt II is nicknamed the Warthog. But it is NOT 'literally' it's name. In fact it's literally not. And this weapon is almost entirely symbolism. The reason it was never used in anger before now is because it's not nearly as effective as most other options we have for the same mission. a series of 1,000lb bunker busters could have performed the same mission. This bombing was about big explosions. President Trump knows using nukes will almost certainly get him impeached, so he playing with the biggest weapons public opinion will allow.
The military calls it the "Mother of All Bombs". The M-3 was the Lee because it was nicknamed the Lee. The M-4 was the Sherman because it was nicknamed the Sherman. No one says "man the M-3 was the basis for the M-51 suspension and that was really cool because it gave us the M-1, making it so the M-8 has roots in the M-3." Because it's nonsensical to keep up with the M-X system when names are so much easier to work with. I really do not understand the value of the semantics here other than making it more difficult to at a glance recognize what is being used?
You're confusing designations and nicknames. Sherman was the M-4's official designation, same with the Lee, just like the A-10's official designation is the Thunderbolt II, but it's Nickname is the Warthog. The MOAB is officially 'literally' the Massive Ordnance Air Blast. It is NOT literally named the Mother Of All Bombs. FOX News and other news outlets saying it's 'literally' named the Mother Of All Bombs need to learn what the name literally is and what literally means. Sensationalism an accuracy generally do not go hand in hand and, when they differ, the news should always, always, always, 100% of the time go with accuracy. Also they said this was the first time a MOAB was dropped. President Obama dropped the first MOAB in Afghanistan in February of 2009. And FOX news lost their minds at the time because the President was using much bigger ordnance than was required. Now they are making Trump look like a hero for using it and even calling him the first.
This is a prime example of the failure of the press to explain what is happening on the ground in Afghanistan and how using this bomb helps our long-term tactics there.
This is the first time in my fairly long life where I have seen the President allow our military leaders to fight a foe using their judgment and choice of weapons best suited for the job. A good leader delegates responsibility to the experts and professionals in their respective fields. The President tells the military what he wants done and the military implements what the President wants using their knowledge and experience as to what will work best to accomplish the task. President Trump is allowing his military leaders to do what they do best.
16 million dollar bomb? 300 million dollar fighter jet? 13 billion dollar battleship? Oh the irony! So does the department of defense use the pharmaceutical companies price guide? Or vice versa???? :-/
It is, but remember, we had that built years ago. Also, it's pretty hard to clear tunnels and caverns that are booby-trapped and have fixed machine guns. They could have used smaller bombs, but this sends a message.
President Trump is a result oriented president just like any successful CEO would be. He listens to the closest to the ground operations and make his decisions. He believes that is when he can get the best ideas and help him to take actions.
I just heard the same question and answer like 3 times. Dropping the bomb makes sense. the reason they are so effective is because of their tunnel system and infiltration into the common citizens, the reason they infiltrate so easily is because these groups are made up of the everyday people that make up the country. if you kill a terrorist and he is unarmed it will be played up as a civilian death because terrorists are civilians. unfortunately the civilians who are not terrorists are caught in the cross fire because they refuse to leave a warzone. if I lived in a warzone, I would either leave, or prepare for war, and to be prepared for war you better be prepared to die.
This comment section is pathetic, and the fact that some of you claim to be christian disgusts me. A wise man once asked "What do you do when there is an evil you cannot defeat by just means? Do you stain your hands with evil to destroy evil? Or do you remain steadfastly just and righteous even if it means surrendering to evil?” an equally wise man will come to realize it is a trick question, and that both paths are evil.
Boss Mayne I know for sure that in the Bible, God did not win wars by peacefully talking it out. He gave one army help so they could kill the other army. Moses didn't help people escape from the Egyptians by talking it out. God parted the Red Sea and ended up drowning the Egyptians. Also, would you rather terrorists, who devote their live to killing us, die or innocent citizens die?
Boss Mayne surrender to evil they will ruin America/ United States Even America has a slogo Were The Country Of Freedom and if u want to mess with that then you can surrender yourself because America is strong and never will give up Stupid
Boss Mayne GOD is a of Love but he is also a GOD of justice. There comes a time where enough is enough. GOD has converted millions and millions of Muslims and still is, yet the media doesn't show it. But he is judging the severe cruelty of those with harden hearts that will not turn to or from love and what is right. GOD is good. And all he does is good. ISIS was blown up and I say Amen with sympathy. Millions and Millions of Muslims converted and I say Amen with praise. GOD always choose love first. And if that isn't enough to convert a evil heart, GOD chooses judgement as justice served for the cruelty of what has been done by the evildoer to others who are innocent. It is simply justice will be served. Evil never last. It always meet its end. Even done to the Enemy(Satan), he will not last either.
Betty Morris Yeah getting their spines removed when we're sent back to war to die in another unnecessary war. But why not? Oh yeah you gave a giant baby access to military weapons.
BreedofDMC6669 military weapons that he has proven to put to good use. Stop bitching and rejoice that we have a good president that is DOING SOMETHING ABOUT A TERRORIST GROUP SLAUGHTERING INNOCENTS.
Trump is a Chump!!! A Coward, dropping shit all over other countries he has no business in.... He ran on no war, get out of middle east, He's a big Liar!
A real leader? ::facepalm:: What did he do differently than the other 2 presidents before? He fell for the false flag most likely perpetrated by United States sympathizers, anti Assad ISIS agents.
Can anyone tell me how large this bomb is? Scale wise? Because I don't know if it denied 10 square miles or 100 square miles or 1square mile. Please inform me
MOAB stands for "Massive Ordnance Air Blast ". This weapon the "GBU-43/B" creates a mist of explosive fuel in the atmosphere then ignites It, the blast radius is more than a mile. The MOAB is not a penetrator weapon and is primarily intended for soft to medium surface targets covering extended areas and targets in a contained environment such as a deep canyon or within a cave system.
MOAB is NOT it's name. On the positive side, it's nice to see Tucker having a useful conversation where actual information is conveyed rather than a high school style debate forum with two people yelling talking points at each other.
I'm appreciating the change of attitude I'm seeing. Fox News is recognizing Trump's affectiveness, and most of the top comments are in favor of this attack. I pray we will be able to protect the civilians of the Middle East, and our own!
Didn't notice 'til I saw your comment. I did a search, apparently Atlanta response officers and fire-fighters gifted it to him after his praise for their quick response to an overpass fire. patch.com/georgia/atlanta/trump-praises-atlanta-police-fire-i-85-collapse-response
George W dropped one of those in Florida as a test I think. I remember it being im the news. Daisey cutters are big bombs too. weve used lots of those in Afghanistan.
Will, have you voted time after time after time, for a Democrat Mayor? Or a Democrat Congressman, or a Democrat Senator, or A Democrat President? Could that be your problem?
GBU_28 Bunker Buster (aka Daisy Cutter) was replaced by the MOAB right? Note: 'Mother Of All Bombs' is a nickname, it's real name is 'Massive Ordnance Air Bomb".
Technically the MOAB is not the biggest non-nuclear bomb. That goes to the Aviation Thermobaric Bomb of Increased Power (ATBIP) aka Father of All Bombs (FOAB) which Russia has. It has more than 4 times the explosive power (44 tons of TNT compared to 11 tons of TNT of the MOAB).
Literally, it is a "Massive Ordnance Air Blast" bomb. I was under the understanding that it is actually FAR less effective than the bunker busters against reinforced tunnel systems.
People need to stop saying "Trump ordered a missile strike" or "Obama ordered a drone strike." The top military leaders ordered these strikes, and the Presidents advisers offered advice, with merely the president giving the thumbs up. I don't think responsibility for a military attack falls on the President.
Trump is doing what he feels he needs to do as president. ( & I'm fine with that. ) However, he needs to stop comparing his administration to the former presidents administration. Obama has left the building. He did what he thought was best while he was in office. it's almost as though Trump is in campaign mode. He needs to just move on and let his actions speak for him
he could have said that using it to change the terrain, gives us the environment advantage. By first shutting off escape routes, stunning mobility, confusing the enemy, giving a wide open terrain to our advantage, and giving the enemy something to be truly scared about.
I know the ancestry of the MOAB. Based on the Earthquake Bomb carried by Lancaster bombers. That was 3 tons. The MOAB is almost 3 times bigger than that! And even more devastating.
I think he got a 25kill streak with those tomahawk missile, so basically he got the right way to use M.O.A.B.. y'all just hating because you guys couldn't get the M.O.A.B streak
he had to do it it's double xp week and he's about to master prestige
stfu with your overused cod memes
Trump does what needs to be done. ima throw some respeck on that
Lmaooo repeck
Let's bow down to the hero that has to say "stop bothering me during golf, just drop the dang bomb, I dont care"

The MOAB is not a penetrator weapon and is primarily intended for soft to medium surface targets covering extended areas and targets in a contained environment such as a deep canyon or within a cave system.
In other words, Obummer didn't use the weapon because he was afraid that Russia, Iran, China, etc., would get mad at us.
myplane150 you wrong there dude, cos Obama is smarter and he got a humble heart..
I can't even get a moab on mw3 and this guy just came in for less than 8 weeks and gotten it? Smh

if anyone could shed some light and knowledge on me, why is there an axe in display behind Trump? I would really want to know thanks.

George W dropped one of those in Florida as a test I think. I remember it being im the news. Daisey cutters are big bombs too. weve used lots of those in Afghanistan.
All I have to say is congratulations to the Soldier who dropped a 24 killstreak in COD, also, is he going to try and go for the double MOAB?
wait did he just say that the bomb was dropped on a town?
Peace through strength. It works every time.
When you're on a roll, drinking Mountain Dew and get that 25 Killstreak
I'm just worried about the precedent that this bomb brings in.
Theres money for bombs but not to fix fucking concrete in the fucking streets of chicago?!?i love how my taxes working...
Will, have you voted time after time after time, for a Democrat Mayor? Or a Democrat Congressman, or a Democrat Senator, or A Democrat President? Could that be your problem?
What is absolutely a scam is that to make this traditional bomb took $314 million (including "research" and 15 bombs).
Okay, the reason behind it was intimidation. Plain and simple, there's nothing more simpler than this.
He said that the kill area is "one mile in circumference." No, it's one mile in radius, or two miles in diameter.
That firemans' axe in the background pretty much tells you all you need to know.
GBU_28 Bunker Buster (aka Daisy Cutter) was replaced by the MOAB right?
Note: 'Mother Of All Bombs' is a nickname, it's real name is 'Massive Ordnance Air Bomb".
