Look on the face of the insurgent firing mortars into the Green Zone when his mortar goes "Poof" in mid-air: Priceless

[Prophet in the wilderness]

Or ? the look on the face of the terrorist insurgents firing mortars into GreenZones and having his mortar go " POOF " and the look of horror on their faces as the mortar falls back on their heads.. PRICELESS
But, we know the liberals/OLD/WORTHLESS/MSM will make political hay out of the USA's deployment of those lasers abusing the terrorist/insurgents because the mortars are falling back on their heads.

I have this vision of the laser first vaporizing the mortar round (we could've used this in Vietnam), and then using an airborne mirror as a relay to vaporize the guy firing the mortar...
