Russia tests 'Dad Of All Bombs'

Neat, more destruction.

Russia's military has successfully tested what it describes as the world's most powerful non-nuclear air-delivered bomb.

That's nice. Good to hear that people are still hard at work at trying to better life on this planet.

Channel One television said the new ordnance, nicknamed the "Dad Of All Bombs" is four times more powerful than the US "Mother Of All Bombs".

Yeah but wait till you see grandpa.

"The tests have shown that the new air-delivered ordnance is comparable to a nuclear weapon in its efficiency and capability," Col Gen Alexander Rukshin, a deputy chief of the Russian military's General Staff, said. Unlike a nuclear weapon, the bomb does not pose an environmental threat from the release of radiation, he added.

That way the people who get blown to ash could still have lived in the area affecting by the blast if they hadn't been blown to ash in the first place. It's an enviromentally-friendly bomb.
You think that Russia would have better things to worry about. I don't know...like this:

Skip work, make babies, says Russian governor


The governor of a central Russian province urged couples to skip work on Wednesday and make love instead to help boost Russia's low birth-rate. And if a woman gives birth in exactly nine months time -- on Russia's national day on June 12 -- she will qualify for a prize, perhaps even winning a new home.

So Russia, you just keep building those bombs so that, in a century or so, you can protect the fifteen people living in your country.
