Russia Tests World's Largest Non-Nuclear Bomb

mahesh_gharat writes "Russia has tested the "Father of all bombs," a conventional air-delivered explosive that experts say can only be compared with a nuclear weapon in terms of its destructive power.The device is a fuel-air explosive, commonly known as a vacuum bomb, that spreads a high incendiary vapour cloud over a wide area and then ignites it, creating an ultra-sonic shock wave and searing fireball that destroys everything in its wake."

    Lemme guess: you're still in school?

    Lemme guess: you're not all that smart or well educated, and you like make yourself feel like a
    big man* by saying snide and condescending things to people on Slashdot.

    * "man" here being a generic for "person." There's no good reason why you couldn't be an equivalently
    assholish woman.

    Its a fucking bomb you hippy. Do you expect to be smothered with happy jumping kittens that tickle you to death with rainbows coming out their asses?

    Get some perspective here.

    If you don't want to be on the receiving end then don't piss off the people that have it.

    Let's hope president Chavez won't get himself one of these. He can surely afford them. This government should go after this maniac, he's a much bigger threat to the free world.

    Our Founding Fathers also believed in slavery and that the Native Americans were savages. In fact, anyone not of European decent was considered inferior. Since it appears from your writing that you are just as ass-backwards as they were and that you are product of your parents thinking whose thinking was influenced by the Founding "Dickhead" Founders; I suggest you blow yourself up with one of "those" commie bombs you detest so much. In fact, just erase yourself under your own effort. Believe me; people like you who believe in ancient American ideology are on the decline. Thank god and good riddance. Your a waste of space, breathing up all the good air that's left in America. Sure you'll hold on awhile longer bitching and complaining about the good old days but you're already gone like dust to the wind.

  6. Test it on Iraq and Iran! by Anonymous Coward · · Score: -1, Troll

    Why don't they test it on Iraq and Iran? At least 20 or 30 tests should be sufficent to protect all the few virgin goats left in those muslim countries. What is it with muslim men and virgin goats anyway? Can't find any camels?
