A SORRY START

On the first day of 2010 we have suffered a most egregious attack. As a whole, our species has always been its own arch-rival above any other. Up until today. They have come from the skies and they have produced no excuse for their acts of violence. The most popular theological conjecture is that they have come to harvest our souls. Some think they are here to punish us. Inexplicably, with each human life lost, one of them disappears. Is it any consolation at all? Many people think not.
