French Expert Sees Imminent Space Warfare

"French Expert" is an oxymoron.

[Lazamataz]

I posted a perfectly good article on FR and all I got was this lousy t-shirt.

In space, no one can hear you surrender.

[facedown]

The independent commission, made up of 15 weapons experts from 15 countries,...

Eritrea, New Guinea, Bosnia, Belize, Iceland, Georgia, Micronesia, Monaco, Namibia, San Marcos, Bermuda, Latvia, Uzbekistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.

I'm thoroughly impressed.

[Lonesome in Massachussets]

Which raises two ineluctable questions:

1.) Á qui peut un surrender?
2.) De qui mettent en boîte un obtiennent des dessous de table ?

All the more reason to sell arms to the Chinese. /sarcasm

[KarlInOhio]

Although he is French, anti-satellite weapons should be a concern. If the Chinese were to decide to take Taiwan, would they knock out many of our GPS satellites as a first step to keep us out of the way? How quickly could we reposition the others to provide worldwide coverage? How quickly could we launch replacements? Will we be able to go back to "primitive" methods of weapons guidance such as laser guided bomb and radar mapping for the Tomahawk, or have we decided that GPS solves everything? I hope the miltary is taking this threat seriously.

French Weapons Expert : He actually fired it once before dropping it and running.

[Cvengr]

"concerns the possibility in the (near) future of having weapons in space, "

weapons in space vice the mind?...They've been there and discussed and strategized only since the 50s,..

Hans Blix has already displayed his incompetence as a weapons inspector. IMHO, The only thing more foolish than him to continue in that farce is the establishment of an organization to hire him for that purpose.

I am pretty sure the Frenchies will watch this warfare from the sidelines, again.

Go Carolina!

Lord save us from these buffoons. They think that just because something is in space, that it's super-special, somehow in need of their globalist perception of preserving it's "purity". Such stupidity has led to the Outer Space Treaty, which we ratified, and the moon treaty, which we didn't ratify. The Outer Space Treaty is so vague and hippy-like with silly, high-sounding rhetoric, that it's full of legal holes so it's not too much of a problem -yet. We will have to eventually back out of it when we start developing serious assets on the lunar surface. Most of the hippy-dippy dems would love to sign off on these feel-good UN treaties that bottle up our future possibilities.

The French should be worried about squirrel grenades! That's where the real front line in the WOT is.
