Those are BLU-86's. We dropped them on Iraq during the PG war. It is a Fuel-Air Explosive bomb that was officially used for "mine clearing" but in fact it was used to penetrate the Republican Guard bunkers and also used to BBQ a sizable portion of the Iraqi army. It's 1500 ft. incineration radius is pretty effective.

I would like to see all caves gassed and all entrances closed off. Let Osama die like the coward that he is, holed up. He is welcome to take all friends and family with him.
