Like a lot of the things that people get pretzled up over these days, there is more to the story. The bomb that was dropped was made about 15 years ago. Explosives don't age well and the options are to just drag them out into the desert and blow them up before they reach a point of instability that they blow up in the depot or use them. It was a win-win in the short term. A target next to no population centers and an especially hated group of bad guys. Problem solved, problem staying solved, right? Except since Trump did it, there has to be something wrong. Why the bomb cost$200billion dollars and required animal sacrifice! The horror! It actually did not, but lets face it, if you want to be mad at the guy, you want it to be true. Just like the other president was a muslim born in Kenya, facts can't get in the way of a good political rage.

As a guy that spent the better part of a decade playing in the sand, I'm amazed at how little people really want to know about the conflicts.
