The new type of "bunker buster" bombs used in the strike are awful if you're on the aim point, but also designed for use in urban environments: They are engineered to hammer the exact target but have little nearby effect. Look at those images of the rubble pit on CNN. Barely anything is left--we may never know who was in there--yet all nearby houses remain standing. That's after 8,000 pounds of high explosives just went off. I wonder if French TV will report that we've gone out of our way to design a bomb that doesn't kill the wrong person.
