who defeated the Iraqi regime 15 months ago received virtually none of
the critical spare parts they needed to keep their tanks and Bradley
fighting vehicles running. They ran chronically short of food, water
and ammunition. Their radios often failed them. Their medics had to
forage for medical supplies, artillery gunners had to cannibalize
parts from captured Iraqi guns and intelligence units provided little
useful information about the enemy.

Space Is Our Home, not a Program
Space Is Our Home, not a Program
07/09/2004 09:37 PM“…For decades the space debate has focused too much on
exploration. The exploration of space is valuable in and of itself,
but the most important reason for exploring space—the reason that
robots alone simply don’t count—can be summed up in one word:
settlement. This time, we go to stay. Even if science was the only
reason to go, the best science is performed by onsite scientists with
their instruments, not by onsite instruments without their scientists.
But science isn’t the only, or even the best, reason to go.
Survival and prosperity are the fundamental reasons, and these are
worth any price.”

the Pentagon, a term of caustic derision has emerged for the enlisted
soldiers at the heart of the furor over the Abu Ghraib prison scandal:
the six morons who lost the war. Indeed, the damage done to the U.S.
military and the nation as a whole by the horrifying photographs of
U.S. soldiers abusing Iraqi detainees at the notorious prison is
incalculable. But the folks in the Pentagon are talking about the
wrong morons... The entire...
