China has the most resources, people that are easily exploited, much easier than the dumb masses in US.My chinese fellows will take over the political, economical  lead within a few years.And you can be proud of your agressive,  but unsuccesful history. Ian is speaking about Pearl Harbor to trigger your paranoia. This is ridiculous. We wont need a war to win. We just prevail, while you waste your money for toys in the sky.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hi all,</p><p>you will learn that your agression wont help.<br /> China has the most resources, people that are easily exploited, much easier than the dumb masses in US.</p><p>My chinese fellows will take over the political, economical  lead within a few years.</p><p>And you can be proud of your agressive,  but unsuccesful history.<br /> Ian is speaking about Pearl Harbor to trigger your paranoia.<br /> This is ridiculous.<br /> We wont need a war to win.<br /> We just prevail, while you waste your money for toys in the sky.</p> ]]></content:encoded> </item> <item><title>By: dude</title><link>http://www.universetoday.com/13319/a-space-war-would-be-a-seriously-messy-business/comment-page-2/#comment-16561</link> <dc:creator>dude</dc:creator> <pubDate>Thu, 27 Mar 2008 22:37:09 +0000</pubDate> <guid isPermaLink="false">http://www.universetoday.com/2008/03/24/a-space-war-would-be-a-seriously-messy-business/#comment-16561</guid> <description>Dudes, you are trigger happy fascists and you obviously are proud of it.Make peace and love and understand that warmongering retards like you are parasites of the human culture.How do you know you are the joy of the world ?

If you&#039;ve got 200 bleeding edge technology multi-warhead nukes heading through space towards your ass (with stealth, possible decoys, little or no advance launch warning, unknown or poorly defined trajectories etc. etc.) then you&#039;re still rooted. And if your technology gets better and you can manage to take some down, a superpower nation will just keep flying them over until they get past.I&#039;m not saying the program is a complete waste of time and money - just a rather big one.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;Tareece Says:<br /> March 25th, 2008 at 5:02 pm</p><p>I see alot of idiocy in these comments and arguements spewed forth in them.<br /> 1) The STAR WARS idea was stupid and impossible (they the opponents said)&#8221;</p><p>Ummm, just because you managed to hit one of your own satellites (with a precisely known orbit, weeks or months of planning, no evasion, no active stealth and no decoys deployed) does not mean that Star Wars will work in an actual combat scenario.

China or Russia spring to mind. Both already have the capability! That&#039;s it you guys don&#039;t hit their birds first, with the importance of being pre-emptive and all.Anyhow, I&#039;m actually convinced that this will happen eventually. Humanity is simply incapable of not screwing up big-time. I think the only way we may avoid ruining space for ourselves is if precision high power laser-based weapons are used to fry satellites instead of the use of destructive impactors or explosive-based devices.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>&#8220;MrBill Says:<br /> March 24th, 2008 at 10:30 pm</p><p>What nation would do something like this?&#8221;</p><p>Are you serious?

Look at all the foreign aid going to everyone...including our enemies in the ME...WHo responds to ALL of the natural disasters over the world??? WHO? US. And what do we get for those acts of kindness in the face of dire need? Face full of crap. 3)  Are u kidding me? You want peace? Go to Iran, go to palestine, go to Middle East countries, get out there where the bullets are and convince the no-goodnicks to lay their arms down. ohhh, thats right....that was tried in Iraq by some and they got taken hostage...yeah, effective.
