I'm pretty sure he has no idea what that means. He just heard somebody say it to him and ran with it.

$314 million worth of dick waving right there folks. 

The MOAB is as close as you;ll get to going nuclear "legally" without actually splitting atoms. (The Russians own a bigger one  )

This military escalation is worrying.

They've just dropped a bomb in Afghanistan that has a blast radius of a mile..Apparently it's the third most powerful bomb ever dropped outside of test conditions. I'm sure it only killed enemy combatants.

Citybank profits up 17% on the quarter, JP Morgan up 16% - Presidency going well.

The board of Genie is terrifying - if those people wanted to they could do just about anything they liked in a country that isn't readily accessible to most outside sources and they could ensure that those things were reported on only in the way they'd like.

They may as well have called themselves Illuminergy and had done with it.

I never even knew that they existed as a company, but it certainly puts a different spin on events in Syria.
