    Missile Defense

Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a nation's war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a "Star Wars" defense system, has technology changed considerably enough to make the latest Missile Defense initiatives more successful? Can such an application of science be successful? Is a militarized space inevitable, necessary or impossible?

Can we do a better job of finding truth? YES. Click "rshow55" for some things Lchic and I have done and worked for on this thread.

There have been 100 posts since this one - and since html connections to previous cites on this thread have been disabled, it is worth repeating:

rshow55 - 08:34am Jan 26, 2003 EST (# 8082

If leaders of nation states wanted things checked - this thread would be a fine place to start - and direct questions to George Johnson - from people with some real standing, might be a good place to start. A good deal is on the record. Some discussed on Guardian Talk threads where a good deal can be "triangulated" and everything that really matters is subject to checking - given someone with real power with the will to do so. Here is one reference to Johnson and his doings on this board. http://talk.guardian.co.uk/WebX?14@@.ee7a163/320

Here is a more important one, from early September of last year: http://talk.guardian.co.uk/WebX?14@@.ee7a163/331

"This is George Johnson this time.

"You can examine me in light of Piaget all you want, but it's not going to change how I think, and it's not going to change the fact that your opinions represent a dangerous aberration that requires the strongest possible refutation.

"You will be checked and checked thoroughly.

"It is not for naught that we saw to it that you began posting here in the New York Times. This is a controlled venue. We know who you are and where you are.

"Don't call the CIA again. It won't do you any good. If you want to talk to us, just whisper into your pillow.

That posting was in response to this from me: "And it will be worthwhile to discuss the work of George Johnson (not that he's Cooper at all - but he does have a certain point of view) in terms of Piaget. And truth that is, somehow, too weak."

There's been a good deal of posting by Johnson characters, and gisterme since that time. People who know, or who have good reason to believe, that gisterme is, or is closely connected to, the President of the United States should find that interesting.

Reading the postings since rshow55 - 08:34am Jan 26, 2003 EST (# 8082 makes the question more interesting.

There are things that need to be checked - and if leaders of nation states - perhaps especially France, Germany, and Russia - asked for some clarifications - subject to some "connecting of the dots" in public - a great deal could be clarified. This thread would be a very good place to start, I believe.

Bob,

It would appear that someone who was probably aware of your paranoiac streak has played a cruel joke on you. As part of your checking, you might consider this a distinct possibility, that a sadistic SOB has played you.

If you want to come meet me in Chicago, email me at

wcooper@21stcentury.net.

We can set a time and place. Perhaps if you meet me in person, and my role in your delusion is eliminated, the rest of it will begin to fade away, too.

You need help, my friend. I hope you're getting it.

Best,

Will Cooper
