Purportedly there are

EMP WEAPONS IN SPACE that make such doings much easier and more ‘selectable’ than the nuke blast type.

“Purportedly there are EMP WEAPONS IN SPACE that make such doings much easier and more ‘selectable’ than the nuke blast type”

Purportedly, but not factually. We are signatories to the space treaty that prohibits weapons in space called “Treaty on Principles Governing the Activities of States in the Exploration and Use of Outer Space, including the Moon and Other Celestial Bodies” (Silly name but that’s what it was called in 1967.) Specifically, United States Code Title 18 Section 7 places US space vehicles under such control, and all other countries that have launched space vehicles have also signed onto the treaty. The US Air Force maintains control over the US treaty and anyone placing weapons of any sort into space would face their fullest capabilities to remove those weapons, not to mention the political fallout and mass media hysteria that would result. There isn’t an object in space that has not been fully analyzed by the DoD for weapons.
