1 Troop to Afghanistan cost $2.1 million and 1 MOAB bomb cost $170,000. Why not just drop 50 MOABs a month?

It would be cheaper and more deadly to the terrorist just to drop 50 MOABs a month than to put our troops in harms way.

Let's take your premise one step further OP, because that's where it will go anyway...

Why not spray Chemtrail bioweapons over Afghanistan?

Bioweapons are cheaper than either soldiers and MOABs. If you totally depopulate Afghanistan and send only a few thousand settlers to guard the poppy fields.

Didn't someone state, "That if you could justify killing one person, you could justify killing everyone?"

Poppies are weeds. Why not just buy a Latin America country and grow as much opiates as you want?

It's all bull!
Nevertheless, the ruler is not truly wise who cannot discern evils before they develop themselves, and this is a faculty given to few. Niccolo Machiavelli

If someone doesn't add value to your life, then that someone shouldn't be a part of it.
You can always trust people to do whatever is in their own interests.

The after effects of the MOAB seem to be similar to Depleted Uranium Poisoning.

Dirty bombs kill forever, those that visit the areas around where they are used.

before you ask for more to be used, you should go see if they will let you and your family play at Fukushima.

Carrying a 9,000 kg bomb 10,000 miles away is not easy

Because only a tiny fraction of that cash goes into the soldier's pocket.

It goes to MIC contractors. And it goes into the coffers of the Pentagon.

It is their power base.

And they need to spend as much as possible and keep spending it and spending more and more and manufacturing excuses to spend ever more of it.

now get back to work
