May 3, 2013: President Obama delivers a speech at the Anthropology Museum
in Mexico City, Mexico.APIn Washington, it may seem like Congress has moved
beyond gun control.After Democrats' highly touted background check bill
was defeated in a Senate procedural vote last month, lawmakers immediately
turned their attention to other matters, like immigration legislation, the
budget and -- in light of the Boston terror attack -- security.But
President Obama and his allies do not plan to let up, with
Vice President Biden reportedly preparing to launch a new push for gun
legislation and Obama's campaign arm trying to enlist the public to support
the cause.As opponents of stricter gun laws rallied Friday in Texas for
the National Rifle Association's annual convention, Obama himself used a
speech during his visit to Mexico to once again sound the call
for new regulations."Most of the guns used to commit violence here in
Mexico come from the United States," Obama told the crowd. "I think

Massive Ordnance Penetrator packs brute force and advanced features meant
to enable it to destroy Iran's most fortified nuclear site.The bomb is
nearly a third bigger than the MOAB, or so-called "Mother of all
Bombs," the 22,000-pound previous generation of bunker busters first built
in 2003 but never used outside of tests. Officials are confident the
newest bunker-buster can dismantle even the deepest and most fortified nuclear
facility.- Senior U.S. official"Hopefully we never have to use it," a senior
U.S. official familiar with the development of the new version told The
Wall Street Journal. "But if we had to, it would work."The Pentagon
redesigned the bomb with more advanced features intended to enable it to
penetrate even deeper, giving it the ability to destroy Iran's most heavily
fortified and defended nuclear site. U.S. officials see development of the
weapon as critical to convincing Israel that the U.S. has the ability
to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear bomb if diplomacy fails, and
also that Israel's military can't do that on its own.American officials
