NEW YORK (Reuters) -- The U.S. Air Force is seeking President Bush's approval of a national security directive that could move the United States closer to fielding offensive and defensive space weapons, the New York Times reported Tuesday, citing White House and Air Force officials.

With little public debate, the Pentagon has already spent billions of dollars developing space weapons and preparing plans to deploy them, the newspaper said.

3. This morning on KPFA radio
they played sound from a documentary that
discussed the "real motives" behind the space
program .

Mentioned how the first gulf war was the first
war waged from space well it claimed 90% of it
was waged from space .

That whomever controls space can control the world .

It was a very creepy thing to wake up to x(
