Trump to create Space Force

"We need to address space as a developing war fighting domain and a combatant command is certainly one thing that we can — we can establish," Mattis told reporters. "This is a process we're in. We are in complete alignment with the president's concern about protecting our assets in space that contribute to our security, to our economy. And we're going to have to address it as other countries show a capability to attack those assets."
 
Why not?

None of our armed forces have any capability in outer space. We’ve got vital assets out there that others might covet for any number of reasons. Others might also deploy assets that could harm us back on the ground,so, yeah, our ability to react offensively and defensively in space seems like 21st century thing we should have been into quite a while ago IMO.
 
how about sending that SPACE FORCE to Puerto Rico ffs ??




What Puerto Rico Is, and Isn’t, Getting in Disaster Relief

"...the funding falls tens of billions of dollars short of what Puerto Rico says it needs to come back from the devastating storm..."

Ten months without power: the Puerto Ricans still without electricity

I believe we have signed treaties not to place offensive weapons in space

Could be.

The problem with treaties though is once someone violates them they ain’t worth the paper they’re printed on. Lots and lots of things militarily the Germans weren’t supposed to be doing by the rules of the Treaty of Versailles, but we all know how that turned out.

Obama said we would not build a Death Star

White House Responds To Death Star Petition: Obama “Does Not Support Blowing Up Planets”
 
Another Trump initiative we can abandon once he is gone
Actually dummy...Space force is something the house and the senate and the pentagon have been planing and discussing for years....Clinton was the first president to bring up the need for such an addition to our military....another loser thread started by RW.....
 
One thing of interest is that all of the world's financial clearing happens in space. It's all digital. And back when people were so lit up about the government spying on Americans, the fact of the matter is that most of the spying was being done on the financial clearing transactions of foreign nations. Except nobody ever talked about it.

We've seen some interesting mergers in space over the last several years between different nations. They're merging together to put up satellites. All of this as the asian and brics banks have come into fruition and we're seeing competing currencies grow. All the while, the dollar is constantly dropping. They're not gonna keep buying our debt forever.

So maybe the US Empire needs to use space weapons to make sure the dollar continues to be the world's reserve currency. This way the Empire can mass murder any nation that tries to unseat the dollar.
