Thanks Pimpin and thanks to Shane and DSMstyle for thier great comments. I watched again at lunch and i just don't have the words to even write a big paragraph. Some of these people only have a few days left in them if that. They showed dead bodies laying outside the dome, trash everywhere, violence. There is human feces inside and outside the dome everywhere. Kids are balling. An old lady was sitting there matting her face with a wet hanky. She looked maybe 75. Looked like she had a day or two left in her. Starving and thirst is one thing but can you imagine the psychological effects of this. This has become a disaster beyond belief. These people have nowhere to go. Unlike the WTC incident, you could go a few blocks from the WTC and business would be pretty much normal. This however is miles upon miles of area that is in total disaster. If anyone ever saw the movie with Kurt Russell, "Escape from New York", it reminds me of that. All of Manhattan became a prison. It was everyone for themselves. Once you get in, you don't get out.

I don't mind people for nagging on me for complaining about our President. But we can't be policing the entire world right now in a crisis like this. The Iraqi soldiers have to fend for themselves. Our intial mission was to get Sadaam out of power. Now that he's out of power we can't keep coming up with new missions just to stay in the country. We have alot of soldiers over there, probably over 200,000(i don't know). It sounds like the director of Homeland security is gonna call upon the U.S. military to help contain the situation down there. This scares me. Many of our troops in 2 locations, Iraq and Lousianna. What a great opportunity for another attack on our soil when we're tied up elsewhere. Us Americans can't handle this, the American economy surely can't handle this. I really think they're at a point where they just plain don't know what to do about this situation. I can't help but getting involved in it. It affects all of us in some way another.
