Yesterday the US announced that they’d dropped the biggest non-nuclear weapon in their arsenal, the ‘Mother of All Bombs’, in Afghanistan’s Nangarhar province.

It turns out zero civilians were killed in the MOAB strike, which is pretty amazing considering this thing has a blast radius of 1 mile in each direction. If the bomb landed exactly where they wanted it to and destroyed ISIS’s network of tunnels (as well as killing 36 of them), then I suppose that’s a job well done.
