So we're targeting suspected terrorists who are suspected of harboring fugives now, are we?

This is the gunship we're using.

Imagine how much that airstrike cost, in dollars.

Fuel.
Ammunition.
Manpower, both active in the aircraft and in planning on the ground.

Imagine how much the damage done was, in dollars.

I am, by no means, saying that we should be sitting on our asses in regards to known locations of terrorists.

But there's already one report of a dead four year-old. And that's just now, shortly after the strike.

So total up that cash, and time, and the life of a four year-old, and ask how many lives could have been saved in Darfour with that money. Ask how many lives could be saved, or even just lifted from poverty here in our country?

We've forgotten how to spend money to save life.
Don't care if you've already heard, but Momofuku Ando--creator of instant ramen--died.

Don't care how much money you have, you know what you have to eat tonight.

And what movie you need to watch.
