The American deaths in the world in less than a week. They could have all been avoided.

(CNN)Tornadoes. Large hail. Violent wind gusts.

A large swath of the central United States braced for all three Saturday as meteorologists predicted the type of weather that can wreak havoc or, as was the case in Texas on Saturday, even be deadly.

A tornado that struck Eastland County, west of the Dallas-Fort Worth area, killed one person and injured another critically, according to Walter Fairbanks, chief of the Cisco Fire Department. 

There was one dead American in this storm.

Update at 3:56 p.m.: The National Weather Service has completed the storm survey for the tornado that touched down in Denton County, Tex. They have given the tornado a preliminary rating of EF-1. No word yet on the assessment of the Van, Tex., tornado, which killed at least two people. As of the last update from authorities, which came on Monday morning, eight people remain missing in the town of around 2,500, and dozens were injured.

There were five dead Americans with this storm. 

That is eleven dead Americans in the span of three days.

Then there was the train wreck which killed eight people. 

Then there was the helicopter crash in Nepal. That was six dead Americans and two Nepalese.

So let's see. 

11 dead from tornadoes + 8 from the train wreck + 6 from the helicopter crash and that is a total of 25 dead Americans from avoidable incidents. 

The tornadoes could have been averted by changing energy paradigms over the time span of 1960 to 1990. The train wreck could have been averted by a technology modification that Amtrak could not afford because of funding cuts from Congress. And the helicopter crash could have been averted by having better understanding of the Himalayas and the winds. 

Yep.

The United States of American has a lot of problems right here at home to solve before it embarks on any more stupidly illegal wars. And, let's not forget this total doesn't account for all the black men still being shot for no damn good reason at all.

I know the USA military loves these missions of mercy to people trying to survive in very adverse conditions. These missions probably seem like a walk in the park compared for what a US Marine is prepared to do. They are so magnificent, but, please remember we are on a very hot planet and things are not the way they are suppose to be. The USA military has to develop a weather and climate specialist and deploy them with every mission and every ship they embark on. Please. The military was among the first to recognize and speak out about the climate crisis. Now, the military is within the crisis itself. I know Marines are tough, but, Earth can be tougher.
