Could you possibly ask for a better excuse to test our 'Star Wars' technology?
My favorite quotes:
"...the military is tracking the debris as it falls over the Atlantic and Pacific oceans."The Atlantic and Pacific Oceans? in other words, they have no idea where all of the crap is going to fall, so in order to avoid panic they're saying it will land in the oceans.
"...so far officials have tracked 'nothing larger than a football.'"That's almost reassuring, unfortunately, even a football traveling at 2 brazillion miles/hour could take out a building.
So in short, what we've just done is created the first world wide cluster bomb.

Out of all the stories about why the Pentagon had such a boner to do this, I think the most likely is that they just wanted to show the world that the U.S. is indeed still more powerful than all the rest.
Our economy in shambles, our reputation throughout the world ruined, we have to show other countries that there's still one major reason to consider us in every decision made. We can whup yer asses!
I have been of the opinion for a while now that the U.S. really only exports one thing globally. Our violence. The film "Why We Fight" gives a great explanation of this.
i completely believe this was just more US posturing. I'm not ready to jump on the anti-America secular progressive bandwagon, but there are a number of reasons why we just plain suck.
This neighborhood bully should spend more time concentrating on problems at home then out exacting street justice.
