Iran's Revolutionary Guard Corps spokesman Hussein Mohbi on Saturday criticized the US for calling its most powerful non-nuclear weapon the “mother of the bomb,” calling it an expression of “barbaric civilization.” In a social media post, Mohebi said, “Only barbaric civilizations use the sacred term 'mother' to name the most powerful bomb.” He also said that the future belongs to countries that can turn enemy threats into everyday jokes. Earlier, US media reported that the Trump administration is considering using the GBU-43/B large air bomb, commonly known as the “mother bomb” of MOAB, in a new round of attacks against Iran.
