The 500 BLU-109 bunker busters can penetrate five meters (16 feet) of concrete. The deal also included 2,500 909 kg (2,000 pound) bombs, a thousand 455 kg (1,000 pound) bombs and 500 227 kg (500 pound) bombs. The deliveries, especially of the bunker busters, were slow. Before delivery was complete, there was a war with Hezbollah in 2006. At that point the Israelis really noticed the lack of the bunker busters and urged the U.S. to speed up delivery. More, but not all, of those bombs were quickly flown in. Israel already had several hundred of the GBU-24 penetrators (of about ten meters of earth), but a year earlier had ordered a hundred of the larger (2.5 ton) GBU-28s. This bomb can penetrate 32 meters (100 feet) of earth, or six meters (20 feet) of concrete. The lighter GBU-24 can manage less than half that.

Remember a couple of years ago when we argued how utterly anti Israel this man is, and most had their heads in the sand?
I won't say I told you so, but I wanna.

Yes, indeed, Madeline; I, also, perceived him as an enemy of Israel... never had doubts and still don't. He is no different than the loathsome, nutter, Carter, a raging anti-Semite. Barack isn't too keen on Christianity, either... he does have a favourite, though; guess. Israel, however, Obama disdains to the utmost; honestly, disdain for the State of Israel and Judaism is unabashed hatred. Unless, of course, he is courting the Jewish vote for 2012.
