Pres. Trump...please have your military STFU
Two nukes would bring the entire country to it's knees. Ask Japan.
There is a US General saying that. And Obama was in charge for the last 8 years. Sure we can make up for a lot with nukes. But do we want to go there?

Awesome! That can be fixed.
Absolutely! But.. it doesn’t make flashy headlines, so never gonna happen.
>>>Admiral Harris also told the Senate he needed a replacement for cluster bombs<<<
Here’s and idea, MOACB’s - Mother Of All Cluster Bombs...
Yeah, the troops are way more deserving than the union thugs. They've already received a lifetime's worth of wages for what they do.
I would take a great deal of satisfaction knowing that the product I was making would be used to fight this cancer on humanity.
There's no problem that can't be solved with a sufficient amount of explosive.
I wasn't talking about nukes..........
Do you have any comprehension of what our entire military arsenal on both sea and air is comprised of without even considering nuclear weaponry?
Defense Priorities and Allocations System Program (DPAS)
How about some battlefield testing of the new rail gun and laser technologies?
Not until they are mounted on ships and that will be a few years. I think some Air Force planes have prototype lasers..
This is not “fake news.” Our NATO allies are in even worse shape. I get why you might not want to let all the bad guys in the world know this fact. But we need to let the public know the truth (to some extent) about how f&*ked Obama left things.
Actually we just developed a rocket that goes three times faster that what we had. Also a new laser weapon.
No, I rely on the US General to monitor that for me. He says were are running low on bombs.
I say make more bombs quickly, very quickly.

Well, the RATpress don't really need any facts to make up headlines anyway. Besides, even without attribution, the bomb builders would know the importance of their own work.
I bet we still have warehouses full of old fashioned dumb bombs.
Use them.
More trouble than they are worth. And adapting current aircraft to them would not work out well.
In other words,
The United States is running out of bombs to blast ISIS terrorists because of the number of targets getting hit
Was a classic case of fake news in taking the Admiral's statement out of context............Read the entire article.
If i had some input i would buy as many old commercial aircraft i could buy, worn out 737,MD80 etc. Put a fleet name on them. Stuff every one of them with explosives,ANFO, Fuel air cannister, napalm and shrapnel.Even a tactical low yield nuke.
Have them remote operated, very simple to do nowadays.
They all broadcast a registered squak number and fly the nearby routes but suddenly in a swarm they cross the border for targets.
