Eco-Friendly Weaponry

Channel One television said the new weapon, nicknamed the "dad of all bombs" is four times more powerful than the U.S. "mother of all bombs."

"The tests have shown that the new air-delivered ordnance is comparable to a nuclear weapon in its efficiency and capability," said Col.-Gen. Alexander Rukshin, a deputy chief of the Russian military's General Staff, said in televised remarks.

Unlike a nuclear weapon, the bomb doesn't hurt the environment, he added.

Well said General. Well said.

At least in terms of terminology, I detect all sorts of sexism. More so, evironmentally friendly or not, weaponry is still weaponry...can't we just be happy?
