lies

Ok, so I'm glad the Pentagon was able to blast the dying satellite out of the sky. And yes, I'm sure it has some "dangerous" fuel in it, nasty toxic chemical stuff. But don't they all? Why don't we blast all falling debris from the sky? It is so obvious that 1) this was a spy satellite and we wouldn't want anyone getting their hands on it, and 2) we are exhibiting our ability to blast incoming objects (traveling several thousands of miles per hour, no less) from the sky whenever we wish. The way they keep harping on the "toxic rocket fuel" hazard is embarassing. I realize that it's probably a wise political move, but the obvious lies sicken me.
