Did it also cause the dry rot around the windows and on the rafters and fascia board?

Apparently, it blew the gutters clean off that building as well.

At least it left the connectors attached.

That was one loud bomb. A fait accompli. A fact on the ground.

I’d LOVE to know for real, how many of those vermin it took out!

So dramatic, so precise... it is information that they acted upon with certainty. THAT means it was a long time developing and verifying.... they knew about those people, that place and that target for MONTHS...

“O” knew for a long time and did nothing... DT ACTED almost right as soon as he got into office!

WHO CARES?!?!!?

Do you know how much money a glazier can make there right now? :)

Anyone know if this MOAB can be equated to tons of TNT or does it rely on another factor for the devastation? Thanks.

Well of course it damaged a mosque. Every building is a mosque/weapons depot.

Here in Missouri, it caused my 30 year-old house to settle quite a bit.
I’m requesting Congressional hearings, because we know that always gets to the bottom of things.
