"Mother of All Bombs"

Angelica Salazar 1st period 

A non-nuclear, 21,600-pound GBU-43/B MOAB was dropped in an attempt to kill ISIS members within tunnels and caves. Bombing in Afghanistan could lead other nations to believe that the United States wants war. U.S. North Korea is already in a small nonchalant feud with America, so i don't think giving off a "little bomb" would be the best idea.

World War 2 was the big start to the inclusion of huge and violent weaponry, so seeing bombs being called "Morhee Of All Bombs," is a pretty big deal. Furthermore, this relates to a decade and a half ago when the US Air Force dropped massive 15,000 pound "Daisy Cutter" bombs on the Tora Bora complex where Osama bin Laden was hiding in December 2001.
