Recently there was a covert test on airport security in the states. The result shows the investigators managed to bring liquid explosives and detonators on board and this generated a lot of ammunitions for some politicians to push for higher military budget.
However how long can a nation pay for such unproductive expenses? Although some people may argue precautions must in place to protect the innocent, to prevent the re-occurrence of 911, and blah blah blah.
I just feel all these are really stupid. One end there are people who claim they defend democracy and police the whole world, while at the other end there are people who fight in the name of religion. And the fighting itself basically nullify everything these two camps stand for.
You don't invade others to get democracy, and you don't kill others to get to heaven.
Last but not least, you don't need to show others how to wipe your ass 'the correct way' in space to prove you are a developed country.
Crazy world.
