Barack Obama has won the 2009 Nobel Peace Prize????

[Peter Lemkin]

Sobering stuff from Michael Chussodovsky at Global Reasearch:

The whole article is worth reading.

I see no sign that the US/NATO are on anything other than a determined and accelerating path to create and enforce an unchallengeable global hegemony - a New World Order - and I fear it will end in disaster in the very near future.

I was most interested in Chussodovsky's words about space-based weapons and the US first-strike capability. Where are we now with that? Can we confirm the existence of:

x-ray lasers in orbit

particle-beam weapons

congressman Dan Quayle's Rods of God depleted uranium missiles in space

gamma ray laser arrays designed to systematically scan urban centers for 100% killrates

scalar use of magnetic resonance to cause earthquakes and human illness

the deployment of nuclear weapons in orbit, in space and/or on the moon, in contravention of numerous international treaties initiated or entered into by the United States

space-based plasma canon

?

Obama's antics with Iran seem to me a ruse for a first strike, presumably on China or Russia, a continuation of the Bush opera in South Ossetia, or a general rehearsal for such a first strike, to see how the enemy's/enemies' forces respond.

My question is: what do we already have in space, and what is Obama doing to upgrade the US first strike capability? Of course it would be sheer nonsense for the Nobel Committee to name Obama's efforts to rid the world of nuclear devices as a consideration if in fact he were expanding the illegal militarization of space.

I try to stay fairly 'up on' the latest developments of space-based weapons. One thing you can be sure of is they are working on them. Best I can discern, at this time they have some, but they are not yet very powerful for space to surface use on a large scale - only space to space [shooting down a rocket et al.] and pinpoint use on surface...but this will change soon and it is all classified, so maybe they are just playing at not having a greater capability. They also are developing ground to ground and ground to air laser and particle-beam weapons and other exotics. These are now powerful enough to destroy a person, home, tank, etc. Cities not yet...but just wait. Where are we as a species when we keep trying to invent more and more horrible weapons of mass destruction and automated ones that allow the person triggering the weapon to not have to face the ones killed....just another 'game' on the computer screen. Sick stuff! America seems to be leading the way in all this, with a very few countries way behind or just trying to think-up countermeasures. What ever happened to the idea of Peace? [They just keep killing those who would be peacemakers.] The USA is also 'modernizing' its nuke arsenal.....all very troubling with the internal growing police state and the external growing imperialism and lust for Endless War...not to mention biological and chemical weapons, mind-control, propaganda, et al. We [humans] are in a very bad place on the edge of the precipice. All the WRONG persons are in power and control. Madness, hate, war, anti-democratic trends prevail and are on the ascendancy. Madness!!!!!
