BREAKING NEWS: Message to North Korea from The Donald

President Donald Trump called it “another successful job” later Thursday.

A GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb (MOAB), nicknamed the “mother of all bombs,” was dropped at 7:32 p.m. local time, according to four US military officials with direct knowledge of the mission. A MOAB is a 30-foot-long, 21,600-pound, GPS-guided munition.

Washington (CNN) Trump’s  military dropped America’s most powerful non-nuclear bomb, the “Bunker Buster,” on ISIS targets in Afghanistan.

This is the weapon the US would use if it were to decide to take out the nuclear sites in North Korea or Iran.  Bunker Busters can take out subterranean industrial complexes used to test or develop nuclear weapons without the wide spread damage done by conventional surface bombs.

The weapon has not previously been used in war but it is unlikely that any targeted explosion would have done irreversible damage to a tunnel system.  More likely, the Trump military see this as a warning to North Korea and Iran.
