'저는 그들의 땅을 지키기 위하여 싸웠던 인디안들의 이야기를 기억합니다. 백인들이 그들의 신성한 숲에 도로를 만들기 위하여 나무들을 잘랐습니다. 매일밤 인디안들이 나가서 백인들이 만든 그 길을 해체하면 그 다음 날 백인들이 와서 도로를 다시 짓곤 했습니다. 한동안 그 것이 반복되었습니다. 그러던 어느날, 숲에서 가장 큰 나무가 백인들이 일할 동안 그들 머리 위로 떨어져 말과 마차들을 파괴하고 그들 중 몇몇을 죽였습니다. 그러자 백인들은 떠났고 결코 다시 오지 않았습니다….' (브루스 개그논)

USA launches process of space militarization – Russian general

MOSCOW - The United States has already launched the process of militarization of outer space, the deputy head of the Russian Defence Ministry’s chief department for international military cooperation said in an interview with the Krasnaya Zvezda newspaper on Friday.

Lieutenant General Yevgeny Buzhinsky reminded the readers that the U.S. National Space Policy, signed by the U.S. president on August 31, 2008, announces the right to a free flight and an unimpeded functioning in outer space of American space systems as the national property of the USA.

The document also stresses that the USA will resolutely prevent any threats to its space means as well as hostile space activity by other states. “The new doctrine adds a tougher and more unilateral nature to these actions,” Buzhinsky believes.

“Russian military experts see in this doctrine a disguised bid of the USA to weaponization of outer space,” he noted. “As you know, space is already used for military purposes. Many countries have deployed and continue deploying in it satellites of reconnaissance, communications, navigation and other systems designed to perform tasks for ensuring their defence potential and security,” the general stressed.

According to the general, “Anti-satellite weapons make an integral part of the U.S. missile defence system.” He recalled that the efficiency of the anti-satellite weapons “was shown graphically in 2008, when the U.S. antimissile Standard-3M downed the U.S. spy satellite US-193.

“Despite the statements of some U.S. officials that the satellite destruction had to be performed just once only to minimize risks for life and health of people, many analysts are of another opinion. They believe that the U.S. tested a new type of weapons capable of destroying spacecraft,” the general said.
