Thoughts on the Blast

I can’t stand it that the US just unilaterally decides it can bomb the moon if it wants to. An overwhelming number of comments here have been from non-Americans who think the US is a big bully and does what it wants, when it wants. I happen to agree. I also don’t like the manner in which they are going about it, bombing and blasting. Why does so much have to be so destructive? It doesn’t, but that mentality persists in all areas, I don’t know why I should expect it to be any different in this.

I also received a comment from someone who asked if I was seriously in “distress” over this. I suppose that depends on how you define distress. I would never have characterized my reaction as distressed. Distress connotes a much more intense reaction than that which I’ve felt or expressed here. More, it’s a generalized feeling that NASA bombing the moon is wrong and wanting to see if I can help stop it. There are so many things over which we are powerless as citizens (and as humans). At least in this regard I could write up a little blog and put the thoughts against it out there. Lots of other people expressed the same sentiment, but probably not enough to effect much, if any change. But I never purported to expect anything more than that anyway. Read my words, I say as much on the Why I’m Here page. More
