Stop the War!

People were outraged when the lives of astronauts were lost, yet we continue to lose the lives of soldiers in Iraq with nary a peep being uttered.

We spend billions upon billions for the space program, yet we skimp on the armor that’s issued to our military. A recent Pentagon study of 93 Marines who were killed show that their lives could have been saved if they were afforded better protective equipment.

Are we protecting our astronauts better than the military? If so, Why?

Hasn’t the government placed the space program on hold anytime something bad has happened in order to assess and fix the situation?

Why can’t they put the war on hold until such time as they find and properly equip the military personnel?

The decision is being weighed between losing face or losing lives?

I would always choose losing face.

There are no winners in war.
