After all 911 was certainly peanuts compared to the death toll US troops caused in other countries so far. These new weapons just make it more easy for the stupid US redneck solider to kill. Possibly in return he gets bombed in a baseball stadium.
Nothing more pointless and badly timed than CERN and all these other money and resource hungry particle research projects in times where energy is known to get shorter in supplies. Why can't public budgets be focused on solving more urgent engergy supply questions first.
Like how to make the fusion reactor effectively replace current fission power plants in the next decade. ITER (Wikipedia)
Thats for electricity.
How about air transport? Is there any major funded project to replace oil as energy source for airplanes today?
Unless you see the particle research projects solve the gravitation riddle resulting in airplane engines anytime soon...
