#1 I see this sort of post almost every day.
At what point or time will the attacks exceed the effects of an A-Bomb? an H-bomb?

Because barrel bombs are metal cylinders filled with explosives, you heartless bastige! And yes, I admire that sort of hillbilly ingenuity.

#4 The implication is a barrel bomb is horrible because it indicates a desire to kill even when expensive munitions are not available. A rare case of lefties not cheering at the "whatever it takes" argument.
