    The MOAB costs $16 million, and $300 million to develop—and it was used on one of the smallest militias in the world http://nyer.cm/AJMag6K pic.twitter.com/dsd0Y8GHwG

        Just curious, is the cost of this bomb in your article overstated by a factor of 94.1176? If so why did you do that?

        Dear new yorker, because of its production cost, would you have rather used the MOAB in a dense urban area? Feel the bern, New Yorker!

        That money could've been used to make #AmericaGreatAgain; infrastructure, communities, education, & etc. But @POTUS got trigger happy.

        Besides the cost to train and equip a service man or woman is closer to 1,000,000

        Number of insurgents reported killed now over 100. The cost estimate has been debunked. Was based on the cost of another bomb.

        This bomb was constructed by the Air Force. The actual cost has been estimated to be under 200,000

        Ayup- welcome to the reality of US success- bankrupt the next generations to puff up the chest of the current, in wars that resolve naught.

        So there aren't that many to throw around. A pity. It is a rather emphatic way of telling terrorists: STOP DOING THAT.
