>DV(CLIMAX): Arsenal of Hypocrisy: Militarization of Space (MUST SEE)
VIEW LARGE / DOWNLOAD
This is the planned final chapter of American Imperial dominance that is fully underway. The implications and threats to humanity are vast. It's costing and will continue to cost countless billions. Maybe that's where the missing TRILLIONS of dollars went that Rumsfeld admitted to on 9/10/01, but then it got dropped after 9/11 (and all of the computers housing the data were allegidly destroyed)?
Anyways, as Gagnon argues (not actual quote): our elite masters have said that they intend to privatize space once it becomes feasible. What that means is that after we U.S. taxpayers bankrupt the nation on the research and development to take over space, the private industrial corporations will move in to reap all of the benefits (kind of like every war we get in).
Bruce Gagnon is on fire with this most crucial topic. This is must see material.
Quotes from the Film:
"The militarization of space is a real threat to survival, a serious threat to survival... maybe the end of the species"
Noam Chomsky,
Professor MIT/Author
"If we have a war in space, in the vicinity of the earth, it will be the one and only. There will never be a second war in space and let me tell you why..."
Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 Astronaut
" I submit to you, this idea of national missile defense is really a Trojan horse"

US Space Command Doctrine
"The United States considers space capabilities—including the ground and space segments and supporting links—vital to its national interests. Consistent with this policy, the United States will: preserve its rights, capabilities, and freedom of action in space; dissuade or deter others from either impeding those rights or developing capabilities intended to do so; take those actions necessary to protect its space capabilities; respond to interference; and deny, if necessary, adversaries the use of space capabilities hostile to U.S. national interests;
The United States will oppose the development of new legal regimes or other restrictions that seek to prohibit or limit U.S. access to or use of space. Proposed arms control agreements or restrictions must not impair the rights of the United States to conduct research, development, testing, and operations or other activities in space for U.S. national interests;

"But on the issue of space weapons, the US certainly risks the charge of hypocrisy.
The US has also been carrying out research on lasers that could knock out enemy satellites and the Bush administration has repeatedly ruled out the idea of a global treaty banning putting weapons in space."

"The US military explicitly says it wants to "control" space to protect its economic interests and establish superiority over the world.
Several documents reveal the plans. Take Vision for 2020, a 1996 report of the US Space Command, which "coordinates the use of Army, Navy, and Air Force space forces" and was set up in 1985 to "help institutionalize the use of space."
The multicolored cover of Vision for 2020 shows a weapon shooting a laser beam from space and zapping a target below. The report opens with the following: "US Space Command—dominating the space dimension of military operations to protect US interests and investment. Integrating Space Forces into warfighting capabilities across the full spectrum of conflict." A century ago, "Nations built navies to protect and enhance their commercial interests" by ruling the seas, the report notes. Now it is time to rule space."
