As I write, missles are falling in the capitol of Afghanistan. No mention of who's missles.

My first reaction to the news this morning, which I read on Mudcat, was the same reaction I had to the Challenger explosion: "Stop it - that's not funny." Then came the realisation that it's not some sick joke.

Forgive me for being disgusted by what I see as opportunistic political flames. I'd think the personal agendas of hate could wait until the bodies of the victims were cold. Then again, the missles sure didn't wait.
