At what size does a bomb switch from tactical military use to one


Requiring presidential approval. Is 22k lbs above the threshold and 19k below. What about 15k lbs. or is only bombs with cool nicknames like MOAB or daisy cutter.

I'm anti war and anti us involvement in foreign military conflicts in general, but we have made a decision to be in Afghanistan and engage and kill terrorists. I don't know why dropping a really big bomb on their system of caves and tunnels in the middle of the mountains is such a bright line to cross. And if it is, I'd be curious to know how you specifically define that line.
