US Tests 'Mother of All
Bombs' in Florida , MOAB

EGLIN AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. (Reuters) - The U.S. Air Force successfully tested the most powerful conventional bomb
in its arsenal on Tuesday, sending a mushroom cloud billowing into the sky over its Florida test range
It was the first test of the 21,000-pound MOAB explosive device nicknamed the "mother of all bombs."
"It looked like a white mushroom cloud, almost like cotton or smoke you'd see from a fire, kind of billowy," said base spokeswoman Karen Roganov, who watched from a rooftop 30 miles away. "We did not feel anything. We saw the cloud and several seconds later we heard a boom."
Defense officials suggested the test was a message to Iraq (news - web sites) ahead of a possible war about the might of the U.S. military.
"Obviously, anything we have in the arsenal, anything that's in almost any stage of development, could be used" against Iraq, said Gen. Richard Myers, chairman of the U.S. military's Joint Chiefs of Staff. An aircraft dropped the bomb on a test range at Eglin Air Force Base in northwest Florida just after 2 p.m. EST, said a base spokeswoman, Senior Airman Nicholasa Brown.
The explosion sounded "just like thunder," Brown said from an office on the east side of the 724-square-mile base, adding that "We barely even heard it." The test took place on a range on the west side of the base.
"It did what it was supposed to do. It was a successful test," a Defense Department official said.
The bomb packs 40 percent more power than America's current most powerful non-nuclear bomb, the 15,000-pound "Daisy Cutter," which was used to pound the caves of Tora Bora in Afghanistan (news - web sites) in late 2001, Eglin officials said.
Base officials warned residents in neighboring communities to expect a loud noise when the bomb was dropped. But police in Pensacola, about 30 miles away, said they heard nothing when the bomb fell and were unaware the test was completed.
It was the first live test of the weapon, said another base spokesman, Senior Airman Ryan Hansen. "We've done some that were inert. This is the first one with munitions," he said.
The MOAB is guided by global positioning satellites, an Eglin spokeswoman said. It spreads a flammable mist over the target, then ignites it, producing a highly destructive blast.
Military officials gave the acronym as "Massive Ordnance Air Blast" or "Massive Ordnance Air Burst" but they have nicknamed it the "Mother Of All Bombs."
The power of the 10.5-ton MOAB bomb falls far short of that generated by nuclear weapons, however.
The Daisy Cutter, used in Vietnam to clear swatches of jungle for helicopter landing sites, is a "dumb" bomb dropped directly over the target. The MOAB is more precise, relying on the satellite positioning system to hit its mark. The Daisy Cutter was designed to kill a large number of troops and programmed to detonate just before it hits the ground, spreading the blast over a 600-yard square area. When it was used in Tora Bora, military officials said it would have a psychological impact on people hiding in the caves because of the reverberation from the explosion.
Eglin officials said they did not know the size of the blast area of the more powerful MOAB. But officials said it was partly a psychological weapon designed to instill fear.
"There is a psychological component to all aspects of warfare," Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said in Washington. "The goal is to not have a war ...
"The goal is to have the capabilities of the coalition so clear and so obvious that there is an enormous disincentive for the Iraqi military to fight against the coalition, and there is an enormous incentive for Saddam Hussein (news - web sites) to leave and spare the world a conflict," Rumsfeld said.

Yet another fulfillment of G-d's Word. The G-d of Abraham, and of Israel .
Moab was the incestuous offspring of Lot’s older daughter. Israelites
were forbidden by Yahweh from meddling with them on account of the tie of blood
through Lot. It was Moab who
seduced Israel to idolatry and impurity. Moab
also hired Balaam to curse the Israelites. Bless Israel, & you will be
blessed, Curse Israel & you will be cursed. G-d will use WMD, WW3, Comets, Asteroids,
according to his will to fulfill his word.
Others places named Moab in the world. Moab, Utah. Moab by
Jordan near Jericho.

| Deuteronomy 1:5 On this side Jordan, in the land of Moab, began Moses to declare this law, saying, Deuteronomy 2:8 And when we passed by from our brethren the children of Esau, which dwelt in Seir, through the way of the plain from Elath, and from Eziongaber, we turned and passed by the way of the wilderness of Moab. Deuteronomy 2:9 And the LORD said unto me, Distress not the Moabites, neither contend with them in battle: for I will not give thee of their land [for] a possession; because I have given Ar unto the children of Lot [for] a possession. Deuteronomy 2:11 Which also were accounted giants, as the Anakims; but the Moabites call them Emims. Deuteronomy 2:18 Thou art to pass over through Ar, the coast of Moab, this day: Deuteronomy 2:29 (As the children of Esau which dwell in Seir, and the Moabites which dwell in Ar, did unto me;) until I shall pass over Jordan into the land which the LORD our God giveth us. Deuteronomy 23:3 An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter into the congregation of the LORD for ever: Deuteronomy 29:1 These [are] the words of the covenant, which the LORD commanded Moses to make with the children of Israel in the land of Moab, beside the covenant which he made with them in Horeb. Deuteronomy 32:49 Get thee up into this mountain Abarim, [unto] mount Nebo, which [is] in the land of Moab, that [is] over against Jericho; and behold the land of Canaan, which I give unto the children of Israel for a possession: Deuteronomy 34:1 And Moses went up from the plains of Moab unto the mountain of Nebo, to the top of Pisgah, that [is] over against Jericho.

| Judges 3:12 And the children of Israel did evil again in the sight of the LORD: and the LORD strengthened Eglon the king of Moab against Israel, because they had done evil in the sight of the LORD. Judges 3:14 So the children of Israel served Eglon the king of Moab eighteen years. Judges 3:15 But when the children of Israel cried unto the LORD, the LORD raised them up a deliverer, Ehud the son of Gera, a Benjamite, a man lefthanded: and by him the children of Israel sent a present unto Eglon the king of Moab.

Judges 11:15 And said unto him, Thus saith Jephthah, Israel took not away the land of Moab, nor the land of the children of Ammon: Judges 11:17 Then Israel sent messengers unto the king of Edom, saying, Let me, I pray thee, pass through thy land: but the king of Edom would not hearken [thereto]. And in like manner they sent unto the king of Moab: but he would not [consent]: and Israel abode in Kadesh. Judges 11:18 Then they went along through the wilderness, and compassed the land of Edom, and the land of Moab, and came by the east side of the land of Moab, and pitched on the other side of Arnon, but came not within the border of Moab: for Arnon [was] the border of Moab.

Ruth 1:2 And the name of the man [was] Elimelech, and the name of his wife Naomi, and the name of his two sons Mahlon and Chilion, Ephrathites of Bethlehemjudah. And they came into the country of Moab, and continued there. Ruth 1:4 And they took them wives of the women of Moab; the name of the one [was] Orpah, and the name of the other Ruth: and they dwelled there about ten years. Ruth 1:6 Then she arose with her daughters in law, that she might return from the country of Moab: for she had heard in the country of Moab how that the LORD had visited his people in giving them bread. Ruth 1:22 So Naomi returned, and Ruth the Moabitess, her daughter in law, with her, which returned out of the country of Moab: and they came to Bethlehem in the beginning of barley harvest. Ruth 2:2 And Ruth the Moabitess said unto Naomi, Let me now go to the field, and glean ears of corn after [him] in whose sight I shall find grace. And she said unto her, Go, my daughter. Ruth 2:6 And the servant that was set over the reapers answered and said, It [is] the Moabitish damsel that came back with Naomi out of the country of Moab: Ruth 2:21 And Ruth the Moabitess said, He said unto me also, Thou shalt keep fast by my young men, until they have ended all my harvest. Ruth 4:3 And he said unto the kinsman, Naomi, that is come again out of the country of Moab, selleth a parcel of land, which [was] our brother Elimelech's: Ruth 4:5 Then said Boaz, What day thou buyest the field of the hand of Naomi, thou must buy [it] also of Ruth the Moabitess, the wife of the dead, to raise up the name of the dead upon his inheritance.

Jeremiah 48:15 Moab is spoiled, and gone up [out of] her cities, and his chosen young men are gone down to the slaughter, saith the King, whose name [is] the LORD of hosts. Jeremiah 48:16 The calamity of Moab [is] near to come, and his affliction hasteth fast. Jeremiah 48:18 Thou daughter that dost inhabit Dibon, come down from [thy] glory, and sit in thirst; for the spoiler of Moab shall come upon thee, [and] he shall destroy thy strong holds. Jeremiah 48:20 Moab is confounded; for it is broken down: howl and cry; tell ye it in Arnon, that Moab is spoiled, Jeremiah 48:24 And upon Kerioth, and upon Bozrah, and upon all the cities of the land of Moab, far or near. Jeremiah 48:25 The horn of Moab is cut off, and his arm is broken, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 48:26 Make ye him drunken: for he magnified [himself] against the LORD: Moab also shall wallow in his vomit, and he also shall be in derision. Jeremiah 48:28 O ye that dwell in Moab, leave the cities, and dwell in the rock, and be like the dove [that] maketh her nest in the sides of the hole's mouth. Jeremiah 48:29 We have heard the pride of Moab, (he is exceeding proud) his loftiness, and his arrogancy, and his pride, and the haughtiness of his heart. Jeremiah 48:31 Therefore will I howl for Moab, and I will cry out for all Moab; [mine heart] shall mourn for the men of Kirheres. Jeremiah 48:33 And joy and gladness is taken from the plentiful field, and from the land of Moab; and I have caused wine to fail from the winepresses: none shall tread with shouting; [their] shouting [shall be] no shouting. Jeremiah 48:35 Moreover I will cause to cease in Moab, saith the LORD, him that offereth in the high places, and him that burneth incense to his gods. Jeremiah 48:36 Therefore mine heart shall sound for Moab like pipes, and mine heart shall sound like pipes for the men of Kirheres: because the riches [that] he hath gotten are perished. Jeremiah 48:38 [There shall be] lamentation generally upon all the housetops of Moab, and in the streets thereof: for I have broken Moab like a vessel wherein [is] no pleasure, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 48:39 They shall howl, [saying], How is it broken down! how hath Moab turned the back with shame! so shall Moab be a derision and a dismaying to all them about him. Jeremiah 48:40 For thus saith the LORD; Behold, he shall fly as an eagle, and shall spread his wings over Moab. Jeremiah 48:41 Kerioth is taken, and the strong holds are surprised, and the mighty men's hearts in Moab at that day shall be as the heart of a woman in her pangs. Jeremiah 48:42 And Moab shall be destroyed from [being] a people, because he hath magnified [himself] against the LORD. Jeremiah 48:43 Fear, and the pit, and the snare, [shall be] upon thee, O inhabitant of Moab, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 48:44 He that fleeth from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that getteth up out of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for I will bring upon it, [even] upon Moab, the year of their visitation, saith the LORD. Jeremiah 48:45 They that fled stood under the shadow of Heshbon because of the force: but a fire shall come forth out of Heshbon, and a flame from the midst of Sihon, and shall devour the corner of Moab, and the crown of the head of the tumultuous ones. Jeremiah 48:46 Woe be unto thee, O Moab! the people of Chemosh perisheth: for thy sons are taken captives, and thy daughters captives. Jeremiah 48:47 Yet will I bring again the captivity of Moab in the latter days, saith the LORD. Thus far [is] the judgment of Moab. |
| Ezekiel 25:8 Thus saith the Lord GOD; Because that Moab and Seir do say, Behold, the house of Judah [is] like unto all the heathen; Ezekiel 25:9 Therefore, behold, I will open the side of Moab from the cities, from his cities [which are] on his frontiers, the glory of the country, Bethjeshimoth, Baalmeon, and Kiriathaim, Ezekiel 25:11 And I will execute judgments upon Moab; and they shall know that I [am] the LORD. |

| 1 Esdras 5:11 The sons of Phaath Moab, two thousand eight hundred and twelve: 1 Esdras 8:31 Of the sons of Pahath Moab, Eliaonias, the son of Zaraias, and with him two hundred men: 1 Esdras 8:69 The nation of Israel, the princes, the priests and Levites, have not put away from them the strange people of the land, nor the pollutions of the Gentiles to wit, of the Canaanites, Hittites, Pheresites, Jebusites, and the Moabites, Egyptians, and Edomites. |
