Do space weapons have the "Thing in tha back that goes up"???? if so, they probably should have been banned already.

What incentive do countries (the ones who can actually get to space, that is) have to agree to this ban? What are the consequences of non-compliance? An angry letter? They won't have our wicked space weapon hovering over their heads. |

Quoted:
They thought that we were retarded to give up biological weapons and must've only brought up the treaty as a PR stunt while hiding the real production, so they decided to keep on trucking with their bio program too. In reality we'd made break-throughs in binary chemical weapons and intended to use those instead.
Case in point: the Soviets signed a treaty with the US to ban biological weapons, and they were manufacturing TONS of Anthrax and other shit the entire time. Kharn |

Space weapons are already "banned," see the "Outer Space Treaty." Of course nobody can actually enforce such a thing. You can't really inspect satellites in orbit, open them up and see if there are any nukes inside that "weather satellite."

As popular as the Rods from God idea is, I don't think it makes sense as the first application of space based weapons, especially until we have low-cost launch on demand vehicles in service. I think the 'killer-app' for near term space based weapons is space based solid state lasers for use as anti-aircraft and anti-missile weapons. By using a solid-state laser there would be no orbital logistics train as the weapon would be operational as long as power was available. (either from photovoltaic cells or a small reactor like the SP-100) SBLs for the win! +1

Completely useless. Missles or rockets designed for something else could easily be reprogramed to take out satellites and it's already been proven to be an effective anti-satellite measure. I don't think they're discussing anti-satellite weapons. Think orbital weapons platforms –– JDAM from space type thing, except KE only. Yup. And it's exactly these kinds of weapons that we need to become dominant in before someone else (Russia, China) does. -K |

I bet China will get right on signing that treaty.  Oh no kidding...they'll drop all their space weaponization plans just-like-that once they hear how Obama feels. Its called getting caught with your pants down and that is what Obama will do to our National security. What Obama and Clintons "Its takes a village" mindset will never grasp...until too late, is that there are some serious bullies in the village just waiting for their chance. He's going to deliver that opportunity, just watch. |

Albeit he said he was going to do it a year ago. Let's see if he decides to take our ICBMs offline because like always they are on a "hair trigger." See if the Russians, Norks, or Chinese agree to that. |

I don't know what really goes on in Barry O'bama's head, but I know that people who support him believe that if we play nice, the rest of the world plays nice too! and we play games with no winners or losers and everyone gets a prize! We should demand that he release his school records, because I'm convinced he flunked history. Human beings haven't changed, but technology always does, and the ones ahead do what they want, regardless of any treaty they signed.

 That bitch better focus on real fucking issues, not trying to perma ban space weapons. Our loser president is soooo in over his head, it isnt even funny.Yeah, I don't see how this is gonna work. Congress is not gonna allow this to happen. Just like how Eisenhower tried is best, even with all the goodwill of the nation on his side, to try and stop the nuclear build up and such and Congress still went over him to get it done. Obama won't succeed in this area. I don't know. Considering who controls Congress now, and their attitudes towards, well, everything, I think we're gonna get screwed in this arena. These are the kinds of people who think just because you don't own a gun the criminal won't feel the need to either, and then we'll all be safer.

For some reason Liberals/Socialists/Democrats have a mental illness. They are delusional. They believe that if we are unarmed others will see that we have good intentions and no one will hurt us.

Exactly. What this will do is sacrifise our technological advantage. It is kinda as if the Brits at Rorke's Drift gave up their Martini-Henrys in favor of assegais, so to not put the Zulus at a technological disadvantage.

"hey lets cut intelligence spending, who needs spies anyway?" this led to the first WTC bombing, attacks on the USS Cole, bombings of our embassies in Africa, and eventually 9/11.... it truly is a mental defect that these people honestly believe that if we throw our weapons in the trash, that some crazy lunatic is going to be like "OMG, I SHOULD STOP FIGHTING AND HUG THEM!", especially when the crazy lunatics we're fighting have already said and done things to prove that when we play "nice" they see it as weakness and strike... fuck cocksucker obama |

How do we know what kind of an approval rating this guy has at this point? Point is he didn’t win by a landslide that’s simply crap they’ve laid out there and have part of America believing. Furthermore, Obama wasn’t handed a mandate other than the one he hears from the “voices” inside his head. |
