Because President Trump said he would kill off ISIS, wherever they are, and this is the just next step in doing so.

The answer choices suck.

How about to take some decisive and useful action against ISIS? I guess an answer choice look that would require intellectual honesty on the part of the media. Silly me.

What happens in the tunnels, stays in the tunnels. A “trick or treat” was located.

I'm surprised they didn't include, TO PROMOTE WHITE SUPREMACY AND WESTERN CAPITALIST IMPERIALISM AND EXPLOITATION.

If they did, they'd get about 80% of the polls.

1. To hit ISIS tunnel complex
2. To test wartime deployment of MOAB
3. To let NORKs know “You are Next!”

To kill jihadi savages.

They really do need killing. Repeat as necessary and it will take a lot of repetition.

Because only the president can authorize the use of nukes. A full bird or slightly higher can authorize the use of MOAB. I hope we have a bunch of them. They do seem to get the attention of bad guys.

The President has directed his military commanders to develop and carry out a plan to defeat ISIS. MOAB was the correct weapon for this task.
