The use of the MOAB in Afghanistan the other day (Good Thursday?) was a pretty good demonstration of what a non-nuclear bomb could do. Seems like a pretty big bomb to kill only 39 ISIS fighters. But you go to war with the systems you have, to paraphrase a famous man.
The size of the damage area for the GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast (MOAB) was impressive with a radius of one mile. And it was probably a flex of the muscle meant to instill some fear in our enemies. Was Kim Jong-un watching CNN that day?
The Russian Pravdareport.com says this:
North Korean leader Kim Jong-un ordered 25 percent of Pyongyang residents to leave the city immediately.
In accordance with the order, 600,000 people should be urgently evacuated. Experts note that the evacuation will most likely be conducted due to extremely strained tensions in relations with the United States of America.
That was the day before the Mother of All Bombs was dropped, and that bomb might give Kim an idea. If he plants enough civilians around his military targets then the U.S. will be reluctant to bomb them.
Would there be babies? Trump, who just the other day avenged the death of babies, would have to make a tough choice.
