-- was aware of and
untroubled by the steps taken as part of a legitimate weapons
development effort:
The simulated reentry vehicle (RV) fired from Vandenberg Air Force
Base in California [as the target for the fourth HOE test] radiated
about 10 times more infrared (IR) energy than that expected from
today's Soviet RVs, and future RVs could have even lower IR
signatures with thermal shroudsThese comments on the SDI
validation experiments should not be construed as criticism of SDI
Organization management. These are all sound experiments properly
designed to collect bits of information necessary on the path to
developing a working system. (Emphasis added.)

-Caveat Lector-
Tim Weiner won a Pulitzer Prize for the series of articles which
later
became this outstanding book. He was a journalist for the
Philadelphia
Inquirer at the time and is now with the NY Times. The book is not
an
opinion piece, it is a superbly sourced piece of investigative
journalism.
The overall point is, though, that if you believe we have
Congressional
oversight in all matters pertaining to the military and/or
intelligence, you
live in Pollyanna Land.

Well, that is your opinion. Thank you for the suggestion. After
reading a certain amount of books on these big expose's
(thousands,
it seems at times!) I developed a peculiar habit. I began to
compare and contrast the views of the various authors to what I
remembered actually happened. Then with compuers, I could
actually
check on some of it and libraries helped. Court records if you
can
get to them. I just have a hard time believing everything I
read,
especially when it is contrary to things I know about from a
number
of sources. Some people simply do not believe everything they
read. Unfortunately, some do.
