Overkill is the idea, they just dont have the wherewithall to use it properly. The first gulf war showed a lot of "proper use" of our arsenal, the initial strikes were so hard and fast, the iraqi's elite soldiers were surrenduring to news crews.
the entire republican guard was wiped out with 2 bombs dropped on the same location. read up on "Daisy Cutters", they are scary as hell. And they are SMALLER than the MOAB.
MD is right, there are much better things the time and money could be spent on, but they dont. We have the strongest military with the most advanced technology in America, but god help you if you have cancer.
