    Insane U.S. Plan to Spend Billions on Weaponizing Space Makes Defense Contractors Jump for Joy—But Rest of World Cowers in Horror at Prospect of New Arms Race Leading to World War III By Prof. Karl Grossman Region: USA Global Research, August 26, 2021 Theme: Intelligence, Militarization and CovertAction Magazine 25 August 2021 WMD In-depth Report: Nuclear War All Global Research articles can be read in 51 languages by activating the “Translate Website” drop down menu on the top banner of our home page (Desktop version). Visit and follow us on Instagram at @crg_globalresearch. *** Imagine this scenario from the year 2045: The U.S. and China, after years of belligerence, go to war over control of the Taiwan straits; most of the battles are fought through cyber- attacks and space-based weapons systems that had been perfected over the previous decades. In a desperate maneuver, the U.S. activates its “rods from God”—a scheme developed in Project Thor involving telephone-pole-sized tungsten rods being dropped from orbit reaching a speed ten times the speed of sound [7,500 miles per hour] hitting with the force of nuclear weapons—and Beijing’s military command centers and other significant targets are destroyed. | 1 “Rods from God” weapon system. [Source: readingthepictgures.org] The above scenario looks increasingly plausible given a) the growing prospect of war between the U.S. and China; and b) the growing militarization of space by the U.S.—in violation of the landmark Outer Space Treaty of 1967 that sets aside space “for peaceful purposes.” U.S.

  • South Patrick Shores Neighborhood (1)
    March 8, 199i Medical Officer, DFAS, FPB, DHAC Health Consultation: ---South ---./Patrick Shores,"\ Satellite Beach Flor ida CrMPo,/4ed Co) Robert Safay ATSDR Regional Representative U.S. EPA Region IV Through: Director, DHAC Acting Branch Chief, FPB, DHAC section Chief, DFAS, FPB, DHAC BACKGROUND AND STATEMENT OF ISSUES Representative Jim Bacchus has petitioned ATSDR to conduct a health assessment on the South Patrick Shores neighborhood (1) . The petition arose from a citizne's concern regarding an apparent increase in the number of cases of Hodgkin's Disease occurring in the neighborhood. Some indi viduals in the neighborhood believe the increase was a result of contamination from Patrick Air Force Base. One p erson with Hodgkin's Disease felt that exposures had occurred from swimming in the Survival Canal on the base. Some in the neighborhood believe that South Patrick Shores was built over an old military dump. At the request of the U.S. Representative, ATSDR held public availability sessions and participated in a _public meeting in the area. These meetings took place on August 7 and 8, 1991. Representatives from the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services (HRS), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Army Corps of Engineers, and Patrick Air' Force Base participated in the public meeting. At these meetings, the community expressed additional health concerns. These concerns include questions on the rates of all cancers in the area, the rate of Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis in the area, the rates of psychiatric illness in the area, the potential connection between the presence of the radar cluster at the base and the occurrence of Hodgkin's Disease, and the possible effects on health from the testing of DDT in the area during World War II (2).

  • Environmental Assessment for Space Florida Launch Site Operator License at Launch Complex-46
    Federal Aviation Administration Environmental Assessment for Space Florida Launch Site Operator License at Launch Complex-46 September 2008 HQ-080558 This page intentionally left blank. This page intentionally left blank. [4910-13] DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION Federal Aviation Administration Office of Commercial Space Transportation; Finding of No Significant Impact AGENCY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), Department of Transportation (DOT) ACTIONS: Finding of No Significant Impact SUMMARY: The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), in cooperation with the United States Air Force (USAF), prepared an Environmental Assessment (EA) to evaluate Space Florida’s proposal to operate a commercial launch site at Launch Complex 46 (LC-46) at Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (CCAFS) in Florida. The EA evaluated the potential environmental impacts associated with the Proposed Action and alternatives regarding the issuance of a Launch Site Operator License to Space Florida for LC-46 at CCAFS. After reviewing and analyzing currently available data and information on existing conditions and project impacts, the FAA has determined that issuing a Launch Site Operator License to Space Florida for the operation of a commercial launch site at LC-46 would not significantly impact the quality of the human environment within the meaning of the National Environmental Policy Act. Therefore, the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement is not required, and the FAA is issuing a Finding of No Significant Impact. The FAA made this determination in accordance with all applicable environmental laws.

BALDOR Associated Press WASHINGTON — An extre- mist group like al-Qaida may be able to regenerate in Afghanistan and pose a threat to the U.S. homeland within two years of the American military’s withdrawal from the country, the Pentagon’s top leaders said Thursday. It was the most specific public forecast of the prospects for a re- newed international terrorist threat from Afghanistan since President Joe Biden announced in April that all U.S. troops would withdraw by Sept. 11. At a Senate Appropriations Committee hearing, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., asked Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin and Gen. Mark Milley whether they rated Borrowing from the likelihood of a regeneration of al-Qaida or Islamic State in Af- ghanistan as small, medium or large. “I would assess it as medium,” Austin replied. “I would also say, the Green Berets senator, that it would take possi- bly two years for them to develop JOSEPH TOLLIVER /U.S. Army that capability.” Milley, the chairman of the Staff Sgt.
