The US using this bomb in Afghanistan was all over the news yesterday, it is named in reality, according to what I've read " Massive Ordnance Air Blast" it apparently costs $16 million, just this one bomb. I think it was just a publicity stunt, again what was accomplished? Nothing.

And then the US says they killed 36 jihadis and destroyed some tunnels. I can agree with destroying some tunnels, what I can't agree is with the 36 jihadists, how do they know it was 36? Did somebody count them? Or did the jihadis issue an official report on this bombing? I mean if they were in the tunnels and the tunnels were obliterated there was no way you could have gone in and see what the bomb did.

So the report on what happened made by the US government is actually fake news because they don't know, they just pick a number and use it, it could have been less it could have been more, or maybe they had warned the jihadis beforehand and there were no casualties, anything is possible.

But it sure is troubling, this administration is justifying it's attacks with lies or at least unsubstantiated reports, like in Syria, how can they be positive Assad did it, if they knew the plane carried chemical weapons ,why not destroy it before it killed people, I mean if the intelligence is so good they knew about it before it happened. If they didn't know, they are lying about knowing the exact plane used for this.

Is something troubling Trump or is this the agenda of the people who really control things?
