Wouldn't one of those mini-nukes be cheaper and easier to deliver than 43,000 pounds of bombs?

I'll be ready to dance in the streets, shoot in the air, and hand out candy to strangers if Israel has nailed the fat dude with the bushy beard, Nasrallah or whatever....... here's hoping they just turned a lot of key Hezzie-Nazi leadership to pinkness.........

Sounds like a measured response to me!

Maybe one of the pilots said, "Hey, Hezbelloh, measure this!."

"If they want to really throw a bomb they should dump pirate DVD copies of Superman Returns."

That would only immobilize them for awhile......drop a load of Pluto Nash on their heads and you will make them all sterile.

Wolf appears to not support Israel to me. Sounds to me like he wants the U.N. to get their way.

I'm searching around to find out if 2 500's is the capacity. One article said that they can have 4 hardpoints for munitions, but I can't find a spec right now that gives all the configurations and total max payload assuming they don't need aux fuel tanks.

The Israelis know what they are doing. No possibility of cotton wrapped bodies at a funeral, with the martyrdom Islamic Shia chants being done to whip everyone up. Martyrdom ends in pink dust. Total obliteration.

Well said.

"23 tons could be 23 2000lb bombs.

The picture says it was more concrete than explosives. penetration was the goal, collateral damage wasn't. Otherwize, pro pali media would be screaming that Israel wasn't playing nice. It's the same as we did in iraq, we used high tonage, low explosive bombs that cause miminal collateral damage.

Wolf is a Turner puppet.
Ted Turner donated zillions of his Time Warner stash to the UN.

Trivia: In absolute terms, the movie. Pluto Nash, made the largest financial loss of any movie to date, with a budget of $100 million and a total US gross of $4.41 million (total loss, $95.59 million).

Typically guided bombs are from 1000 lbs to 2000 lbs. As far as I'm aware, but then, I'm not an Air Force guy.

It could have been a lot of smaller ones, or several medium sized ones.
