DARPA Completes the $30B Pig Bomb (P-35) Program

Now any military device with '35' in the name and likely your first thought would be 'very expensive and does not work.'  That's logical based on the exceptional Pentagon clusterfuckage of the F-35 which (cough) still does not work ... but ... that military boondoggle is just one in a series.  Before that the F-22 cost forty billion and never did anything.  The B-2 bomber hardly ever does anything.  The B-1 never did anything.  Thus, it's clear the jinx is not in the number but in Pentagon planning or, more accurately, the total absence of planning.

Also given the 'defense companies' have not come up with anything significant that worked since the B-52 and Agent Orange, it's reasonable to assume DARPA's P-35 Pig Bomb Program will not work either.  However, this may be the one exception in the last sixty years that actually does what the Pentagon says it will do.  (DARPA:  P-35 Pig Bomb Overview)

The P-35 Pig Bomb does not kill anyone nor will it ever as there is nothing explosive in it.  However, it does release thousands of Bacon Bits all over any Muslims near where it lands.  Any Muslim coming in contact in any way with pork is required to go immediately to his or her Imam for ritual purification and is thusly 'disabled' as a combatant.  That they will return is obvious but what should also be obvious is DARPA has a shitload of P-35 Pig Bombs.  Come on back to theatre, Abdul, and get covered in Bacon Bits all over again.

The irony is the only thing in Bacon Bits that has anything to do with a pig is the Monosodium Glutamate.

(Ed:  what does Monosodium Glutamate have to do with pork?)

No idea but it's the best I could do on short notice.  Everything else in Bacon Bits is made from recycled Pampers plus appropriate flavoring.
