LATEST OSWELDA AKA WICTOR POST—DISCUSSION OF WEAPONS
BEGINNING AT THE LAST FEW PARAGRAPHS:

The advantage of these weapons is that they form a cloud of vapor that completely fills a specific zone.

When the detonation occurs, there’s no escape.

We already have airburst munitions, but they rely 100 percent on fragmentation.
Directed-blast munitions are “precision obliteration.”

They’re weapons for urban combat in that they create zero collateral damage.

It appears that a large munition was used in the Suleimani strike, and then they fired cannons into the wreckage to make for pretty pictures.
Today, America is FAR MORE RESPECTED in the Middle East than we were 48 hours ago.

@realDonaldTrump was already respected, but now he’s seen as the president who will end DECADES of Iranian-orchestrated carnage.

So of course the Democrats take the side of the mullahs.
Did you know that Qassem Suleimani was banned from traveling to ANY FOREIGN COUNTRY?

Reuters has it now. Here’s one of the first reports.

BREAKING: “Unconfirmed report that Qais Khazali, one of the people the US named as responsible for storming of US Embassy in Baghdad, has been killed in new Baghdad airstrike” - @lookner

Quds leaders must be freaking out.
