Welcome to Free Republic. FYI, we generally don't support the use of the military to commit mass murder here. We also have a lot of FReepers who are VN vets who know that the problem was Democrats undermining the war effort from home, and not any innate military inabilities we had in-country.
However, I share your enthusiasm for the power of the B41. But even something that powerful has to be used at the right time, in the right way, on the right target.
Have a nice day.

The firebomings of Japan in WW2 were mass murder. But they were effective.
You can look at the statistics here. Notice the huge drop in manufacturing that happens in 1945.
