The 45th United states president, Donald J. Trump has issued an official statement regarding the non-nuclear bomb dropped on Afghanistan.
The president after ordering the bombing of Afghanistan using the powerful GBU-43/B Massive Ordnance Air Blast Bomb which weighs about 21,600 pound, and about 20ft long said: “Everybody knows exactly what happened, so…and what I do is I authorise my military. We have the greatest military in the world and they’ve done a job as usual.”
The president after dropping the GPS-guided munition which is America’s most powerful non-nuclear bomb designed to burrow through 200 feet of earth and 60 feet of concrete before detonating added: “So we have given them total authorization, and that’s what they’re doing. And frankly that’s why they’ve been so successful lately.”
The Mother of All Bomb, MOAB was according to the military in 2013 conceived as a weapon employed for “psychological operations.”
The military added that the bomb was aimed at forcing the Iraqi troops into surrendering.
