KEEP SPACE FOR PEACE WEEK OMNI NEWSLETTER #3 ON MILITARIZATION OF SPACE

 

KEEP SPACE FOR PEACE WEEK

OMNI NEWSLETTER #3 ON MILITARIZATION OF SPACE; OCTOBER 4, 2008, BUILDING A CULTURE OF PEACE, Compiled by Dick Bennett (#1 December 13, 2006; #2 January 24, 2008)

 

The militarization of the US on Earth—the $600 billion budget for the Pentagon 2008-09 plus a hundred billion more for Iraq and Afghan wars, some 900 military bases abroad—is being expanded to include outer space.  We should be demanding our presidential candidates to include this dangerous extension of the war system  in their debates and to oppose it and begin to reject it.  WE, THE PEOPLE.
