I don’t know how bad these bunker busters would be (but I find it interesting that the author of the article does not go into the size of said weapons), but the comments "der Bush" and "even better would be to forbid him from conducting so called 'preemptive wars' with anybody who disagrees with him" kinda turned me off of what he said. Plus it is from GlobalResearch.ca, which is not the most accurate source available. A better source would be Pravda  . Same goes with talking about how bad DU is. The name says it all, DU is depleted, thus the word depleted. The main thing to worry about it is that it is a heavy metal. Same thing with tungsten which is the other major material used for AP ammunition. So I wouldn’t trust this as far as I can throw it. |
They are tiny - 1 kiloton or less. Maybe even 700 ton class. Very low yeild, yet very effective in there job of collaspsing the problem area that is impervious to conventional bombing - even impervious to ground penetrating 4k'ers!
Think of it as a 100K pound bomb. Yes, it has a rad output, but probably much less than the output of the sun directing its energy upon the Earth in a day.

PS. You own body has a rad output in a day.
