TROUBLE BREWING . . .

. . . or the same old sabre rattling?






I used to work in a sensitive operation that is still ongoing . . . the Korean woman involved in the project (everybody is convinced she is originally from the North; she's like a Bond villain - I'll refer to her as the Cat Woman - she is that bizarre) . . .






. . . one day the NorKorCom's were doing their bit, massing on the border and sending out hateful propaganda; Cat looked at the TV screen and snorted, "They must need more rice!"









That's all this is . . . as evil as they are - and they ARE evil, I don't believe in underestimating the Enemy - the NorKorCom's don't have the means to project their power - everything they do is designed either toward controlling their own people, or as a means to an end vis-a-vis the South.












Another piece of wisdom . . . any U.S. soldier who has served on the Korean Peninsula . . . a.k.a. the Hermit Kingdom . . . a.k.a. the Land of the Open Kimono . . . will tell you - the United States has kept troops stationed on the peninsula all these years NOT to keep the North from going South, but to keep the South from going North . . .



Never underestimate the Enemy!

GIANT LASER WEAPONRY AND THE FUTURE OF NUCLEAR POWER

Remember how the Liberals mocked the entire concept of "Star Wars", and swore that space should "never be weaponized"? Remember how even the threat of a then-undeveloped space-based weapons system drove the Soviets to the bargaining tables and ultimately caused the Evil Empire to fold?

The Soviet Union is gone, thanks in part to the threat of "Star Wars" weaponry. Now a new threat emerges; rogue nuclear states such as North Korea and Iran seek to develop their own nuclear arsenals, and Pakistan - an unreliable ally - already possesses such rocketry.

Thanks to the inspired vision of a B-grade Hollywood actor, just in the nick of time Star Wars arrives . . .

THANK YOU, RONALD REAGAN!

Ray Guns Real: Army Betting Big on Laser Weapons
Fox News January 21, 2010



Boeing is developing a mobile laser weapon for the U.S. Army. Mounted in an Osh Kosh armored vehicle, the weapon will will enable the military to fight at the speed of light.



Watch Laser Weaponry at work!!!


How Military Lasers Work


Illustration of a free electron laser. A beam of electrons is sent through an undulator -- an array of magnets with alternating north and south poles. The magnetic field in the undulator forces each bunch of electrons to oscillate back and forth, causing them to emit a laser-like beam of light.


"We have 3 missions: We're going to harness that energy and use it for the benefit of our national security, for enabling clean energy here on earth, and for advancing frontier science."

NIF Laser “Sun on Earth” Opens for Business with the Hope of Humanity

So-called "green energy alternatives" are politician's pipe dreams; solar, wind, wave, geo-thermal, conservation and recycling simply cannot produce the amount of energy our society requires. The future is nuclear, but traditional nuclear reactors produce irradiated waste that lasts 10,000 years. Controlled thermonuclear fusion is the true future of nuclear power:


Fission vs. Fusion



“When all 192 beams are operational in 2009, NIF will direct nearly two million joules of ultraviolet laser energy in billionth-of-a-second pulses to the target chamber center. When all that energy slams into millimeter-sized targets, it can generate unprecedented temperatures and pressures in the target materials – temperatures of more than 100 million degrees and pressures more than 100 billion times Earth’s atmosphere.”

IF I WAS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

. . . North Korea wants to fire one of their stoopid bottle rockets at us over the 4th of July weekend? Y-A-W-N . . . no big deal . . . float the US Navy out there and zap it with THIS:
