In it, PNAC outlines what is required of America to create the global empire they envision.<BR/><BR/>According to PNAC, America must:<BR/><BR/>* Reposition permanently based forces to Southern Europe, Southeast Asia and the Middle East;<BR/>* Modernize U.S. forces, including enhancing our fighter aircraft, submarine and surface fleet capabilities;<BR/>* Develop and deploy a global missile defense system, and develop a strategic dominance of space;<BR/>* Control the "International Commons" of cyberspace;<BR/>* Increase defense spending to a minimum of 3.8 percent of gross domestic product, up from the 3 percent currently spent.</I><BR/><BR/><A HREF="http://www.shns.com/shns/g_index2.cfm?action=detail&pk=SCHRAM-05-30-06" REL="nofollow">Pentagon needs to rethink non-nuclear warhead plan</A>:<BR/><BR/><I> The Pentagon has asked Congress to approve a five-year, half-billion dollar plan to put non-nuclear warheads on two of a Trident submarine's Trident II missiles _ while the sub's other missiles still carry nuclear payloads. The idea is that this is the best _ perhaps the only _ way of striking with a non-nuclear warhead if time is urgent. For example, if U.S. intelligence gets word that al Qaeda has a nuclear bomb and is about to move it from a place where it can be targeted to someplace where it might not be detected again until it strikes America's homeland.<BR/><BR/>Advocates say only the submarine-launched missiles hold the potential to be close enough to targets to strike in less than one hour.<BR/><BR/>Critics caution that the world's other nuclear nations (Russia most likely, China possibly) have sufficient technology to see that a nuclear-capable missile has been launched from a nuclear-armed Trident submarine. They might believe a U.S. nuclear first strike is underway. Even though it is a non-nuclear warhead.<BR/></I>Disgusted in St. Louishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07831983817039007159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1150317926368731752006-06-14T15:45:00.000-05:002006-06-14T15:45:00.000-05:00Cranky Prof...Hmmm, mayhap a bitch has been inspir...Cranky Prof...Hmmm, mayhap a bitch has been inspired.<BR/><BR/>Maven...we would so rule the world, as it was meant to be!Shark-Fuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03323962708956637012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10755833.post-1150312549480706732006-06-14T14:15:00.000-05:002006-06-14T14:15:00.000-05:00Tuck!Duck!Roll!PS: ABB, I hope one day to procure ...Tuck!<BR/><BR/>Duck!<BR/><BR/>Roll!<BR/><BR/>PS: ABB, I hope one day to procure Photoshop... can you see what a double-threat you and I could become?
