#1 How many of those were needed to make that crater? How deep would it be if you doubled the number of bombs used on the same spot?

#2 Another piece of ammunition destined to sit in storage and rot.
Champ will use it against Iran exactly in the same way he uses it against the NORKS
meaning zilch !
He is a (dumb bordering on childish)negotiator !
The US military (their master's voice) keep fearfully listing all the horrible consequences of a strike on Iran.
in a few months the price of attacking would triple (but that would be the punishment of the next POTUS, or so Bambi hopes- knowing full well that he has very little chance of getting reelected - assuming American voters can analyse the mess he's left behind).

#4 Mike,
Credit Swiss is in to assess their future profits from Rehab operations after we're through with the Iranians.
They also need to plan the financing of selling new nuke reactors and spare parts to the Ayatollahs after the present ones are destroyed.
and finally they are there to assess the ability of their fortified vault rooms to withstand the bunker busters :)
