10,000 Bombs
last night i heard that we have dropped 10,000 bombs on the people of afghanistan who we care about, but who happen to be in the wrong place at the wrong time. some of the bombs have hundreds of baby bombs...they call them bomblets. and they look like the food packages that land in the mine fields and contain things like strawberry jam and pop tarts and little napkins.... wouldn't want them to get their fingers sticky before we explode them. after all, unlike them, we are A Civilized Nation. our leader, who should know, after all, says we are a good people - warm and caring. but look in the mirror and see the face of the monster that is US.
