US To Test 700 Ton Conventional Bomb

Too bad we cannot test this beast on the Iraq/Iran border.

From Breitbart/Drudge.

The US military plans to detonate a 700 tonne explosive charge in a test called "Divine Strake" that will send a mushroom cloud over Las Vegas, a senior defense official said.

"I don't want to sound glib here but it is the first time in Nevada that you'll see a mushroom cloud over Las Vegas since we stopped testing nuclear weapons," said James Tegnelia, head of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency.

Methinks some of the Iranian people might need to see what Ahmadinejad and the Supreme Council of Iranian Stupidity are pushing toward.
