Established by members of Congress who claim that preparations to protect U.S. "Space Assets" are inadequate, the commission's report will likely pave the way for Star Wars. The commission was led by Donald Rumsfeld, President-select George W. Bush's nominee for Secretary of Defense, who has pledged to make the missile "defense", and the space-based laser, a top priority. Three former leaders of the U.S. Space Command are commission members and there is no doubt that the timing of the "Commission's report", on the same day that Rumsfeld's confirmation hearings begin, are intended to create the momentum to sweep Rumsfeld into his new cabinet seat without a word of controversy. While the media and some in Congress question the appointments of Ashcroft, Chavez, and Norton, the move toward Star Wars and the expenditure of over $100 billion to get there is not open for public discussion. The creation of a new arms race in space and the U.S. violation of the ABM and Outer Space Treaties seems to be an insignificant issue to the corporate controlled media. The aerospace industry has the media in the bag. Now they are lining up Congress to ease through the Rumsfeld nomination. Once done they figure not a wimper will be heard from the American people. The new space "control and domination" regime will be underway and massive corporate welfare for the industry will be in place. Further cuts in social spending will have to come next to pay for the enormous costs in Star Wars. We urge all who are concerned to immediately contact your two U.S. Senators to urge them to fight Star Wars. The real fight to stop Star Wars begins with the issue of Senate approval of Donald Rumsfeld as Secretary of Defense. CALL YOUR SENATORS ASAP via the Congressional Switchboard at: (202) 224-3121.
