The Global Network's annual Keep Space for Peace Week
comes at a time when the Trump administration is moving to spend
trillions of 'unavailable dollars' on his new pet project - Golden
Dome.
As
we remember the last big US military development of nuclear weapons
dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we now face the latest twist in the
big-tech agenda for war in and from space.
In
the poster above Pistol Pete Hegseth declares that the US must dominate
space and has no 'interest in orbital equity or orbital parity'. These
words signal a dangerous declaration of coming space wars against
nations like China, Russia, India and more.
Of course this will cost the US an arm and a leg at the very time our nation is $39.8 trillion and counting in debt.
The
American Physical Society has estimated that the cost of Golden Dome
would be trillions. Trump has said he wants to add Canada to the
coverage area and even hinted adding Europe. Each addition adds massive
costs to the proposed project which only makes the aerospace industry
happy.
I
heard Trump recently state that the Congress must vote to turn over
Medicare and Medicaid coverage to the states because the feds can't
afford these vital programs due to our current wars. States don't have
the funds either!
This
brutal austerity agenda includes privatizing the Veterans
Administration, Post Office, Social Security and selling off national
parks and forests.
We
urge you to help the Global Network during Space Week to illuminate
these serious dangers and contradictions of the Golden Dome and the
broader militarization and nuclearization of space.
One good resource is our YouTube
library of videos on nearly every aspect of the space issue. It would
help to share some of these between now and October 3-10. Just click here
We thank you for your support for our work to keep space for peace. Please keep in touch.
