Summary - Recently the United States dropped the GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast bomb, nicknamed the "mother of all bombs". The US dropped the humongous bomb this weekend after an increase in fighting in the area. It was dropped in Afghanistan near the Pakistan border. No citizens remain in the area because ISIS took the region over. It is reported that 94 fighters were killed. Donald Trump said the mission was "another very, very successful mission."
Analysis - This attack was only a week after the US attacked a military base in Syria. I have noticed that Trump has been making very aggressive moves against groups in the Middle East. I certainly hope that this doesn't come back to bite us in the butt because many of these groups also have weapons to attack the US with. I don't think that our president actually cares about the wellbeing of the citizens of these countries so he's probably only attacking to make the US seem strong or to make him feel better about his islamophobia. The US is appearing to be overly aggressive like it was in the Vietnam War.

I agree with you and your view. Hopefully Trump's decisions for the country don't cost us in these four years in office.
