BREAKING: 'US used nukes on Iraq, Afghanistan': Atomic bomb dropped on Tora Bora: Expert

Global Research Editor's Note

This report, which is yet to be verified must be taken very seriously. We are dealing with nuclear war.

A tactical nuclear weapon (e.g. B611-11) is a a bunker buster bomb with a nuclear warhead.

It has an explosive capacity between one third and six times a Hiroshima bomb.

Michel Chossudovsky, December 1, 2011

The United States has used tactical nuclear weapons in its military campaign against Iraq and Afghanistan, a Middle East expert tells Press TV.

“Tactical nuclear weapons were used, at least one in Iraq and several were used in Afghanistan --in the Tora Bora mountains,” Peter Eyre, a Middle East consultant, said.

B611-11 Tactical Nuclear Weapon

Eyre pointed out that the atomic bomb dropped on Afghanistan's Tora Bora region was so powerful that it actually created an earthquake there.

The analyst went on to say that the use of such lethal weapons by US military, which is a gross violation of the Geneva Convention, has been sanctioned by the US presidents; thus they should be prosecuted for war crimes.

"In America, the ultimate commander in chief is the president," Eyre said, adding that the President has the final say in using such weapons.

The US is the first country in the world to develop nuclear weapons and the only one to use them.

Thousands of people were killed in August 1945, when the US bombers dropped atomic bombs on Japan's Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The US invaded Afghanistan in 2001 under the pretext of toppling the Taliban regime, claiming that the militants have refused to hand over Osama bin Laden.

The US also invaded Iraq in 2003 under the excuse of destroying alleged weapons of mass destruction (WMD) belonging to former dictator Saddam Hussein.

Many civilians, including women and children, have been killed as a result of these wars.

The US-led war in Afghanistan, with civilian and military casualties at record highs, has become the longest war in the US history.

Wow. This is tough to believe/understand. Could this be corrupted news at its finest?

[FishmanTx]

America. Love it. or Leave It!

They're lucky Tora Bora didn't end up as a glass covered parking lot.

[Heavyduty053]

If this is true and i say if all i can say is unbelieveable.

[usndiver]

Not only did we use nukes, Hallyburton contracted with local mercenaries to provide Iraqi babies, puppies and kittens to feed U.S. troops. The contract fell through though because the U.S. strip mall Chinese food industry has a monopoly on the puppies and kittens.

[lizabeth1]

now thats scary very scary...

[FlintNPebbles]

I am apt to believe it's more radical nonsense. Using nuclear weapons would be hard to hide and we do have allies with us in Afghanistan who might notice if we deployed a nuclear bomb.....they are not exactly like "regular" bombs.

Now I don't care who you are That's Funny stuff there "usndiver" how you doing Friend long time no here.

[coldwarvet]

Speaking as a former B-52 pilot, who had custody of mutiple nuclear weapons for over 10 years as part of SAC alert duty, I can tell you this article is a bunch of crap. The effects of the explosion of a B-61 nuclear warhead (which I studied extensively as part of my Air Force career) would be so far reaching, and so easily detectable, that anyone who had access to satellite imagery or nuclear detection technology would be able to tell right away that a nuclear detonation had occurred. As unpopular as the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan have been in the world community, don't you think that any nation (e.g., Russia) with detection technology would be able to know if such a blast occurred, and then tell the rest of the world? Where else have you heard about this? This article is nothing more than a member of the radical fringe attempting to smear the US. Mods, please close this thread. It's not worth our collective time.

[TPSprayduster]

It's president obama fault he must have given the word to drop it.

[GMartin]

A lot of blog websites having this on there site. Don't believe it, seems like junk to me.

Come on people this is TOTAL BS!!! We could not have kept that hidden, where is all the radioactive fallout that would have been detected? All the cases of radiation poisoning? Russia and China and the rest of the world would have been raising hell to the tops of their voices! Come on now this is just plain dumb!

For once I totally agree with you..........utter nonsense

[FuzzyUzzy]

If this is true and i say if all i can say is unbelieveable.

well guess what, it isnt. if it were true all world news agencies would be screaming their little heads off.

[nick.powell52]

lollll, wow they are fishing at anything to try and turn the middle east on America, sorry guys might be a little to late for that. Hmm i can guess that the whole middle east will be democratic within 10 years, just accept it and live happy (what it really is, is that we embarrassed the **** out of them, and led a ground campaign lasting 22 days to take iraq, and were doing the same in afghan) id be pretty embarrassed to if a country didn't even have to break out the real devastating weapons to win a war

I am hitting the BS button on this.

I will bet that what was meant was that a bunker buster has the power of 1/3 ro 1/6th of the Nuke we dropped on Japan. The signature (fall out) of a nuke is very distinctive and there is no way that it would not have been detected long before now by the international community.

[drlewis]

When we nuked japan, we didnt send our teoops over there right away for 10 years...
