Something I just heard on radio - NASA now stands for Need Another Seven Astronauts. MegaLOL! Now that's irony!

that's f@#k up!!.. NASA is the symbol of the hard work and
the dedcation to space. How can anyone say a rude thing
like that. When the challenger was no longer. Many people
thought that NASA stood for that. The space station is completed the world should be unitified in the exploring of space. for now the usa could ask the world to be more
diverse then ever. So u make fun of NASA u make fun of the WORLD.....

Tell me something. Why is that whenever something happens to US it's a world tragedy? 11.9. was world tragedy and all that. When somebody blew up those apartment blocks in Russia in 1999 was it world tragedy? Did US observe 1 minute of silence? Did they lower the flags on half staff? Or when somebody blows up a pizza place in Israel? Is that world tragedy? Do US observe 1 minute of silence in their memory? Or when Israelis kill refugee in Lebanon? Guess not.

But when soemthing happens to US then whole world must mourn the dead, whole world must be shocked, whole world should fly their flags on half staff. Get some perspective, will you?

That is true, but there were people of many nationalities killed in the terrorist attack against the US.

I suppose we are all expected to mourn the loss of the shuttle because it could have implications for all of us.

when the terrorist took over Russian theater, all of America watched with worries, this was even discussed in American classrooms across the country, America doesn't mourn such things as restaurant bombings and insane terrorists attacks that happen everyday in these other countries. they are viewed as acts of cavemen. terrorism is stupid, we shouldn't have to live in fear. i like going out with thinking, "oh , what if they blow up this mall" this will not be part of american lifestyle, so we tend to block out such events in other countries, you would too. its human nature.
