We dropped 100,000 lbs of ordinance within 1 minute and killed maybe 4 people in Syria. Why is 36 dead using 21,500 lbs of ordinance at once so terrible? Or underachieving I should say.
I realize casualties weren't the objective in Syria, but planes were still taking off the next day. And I doubt those 36 guys were crowded around a campfire. The MOAB basically cleared out an entire operating area.
Do they think it's more cost effective to break it down into 1,000 lb payloads with individually guided long range delivery vehicles? Pushing the MOAB out of the back of a C130 seems pretty economical

Because it makes Obama look more and more like the biggest pussy on the planet.
