MAJ James Woods good read and share of emphasis.
"Militarization of outer space is the path to disaster,” Victor Bondarev, head of the Russian Parliament’s Upper House Committee on Defense and Security, told state media Tuesday.
”Let's hope the American political elite still have the remnants of reason and common sense,” Bondarev said. “But if the United States withdraws from the 1967 treaty banning nuclear weapons in outer space, then, of course, not only ours, but also other states, will follow with a tough response aimed at ensuring world.

Agreed. Would've have thought we learned from the 80s Star Wars program that any attempt to weaponized space or imply the right to claim ownership of space just doesn't work. Think the DoD needs to elaborate more on what the true role of a US Space Force branch would have when it comes to National Defense & Military Strategy. Two important documents that I don't think Trump has ever read.

MAJ James Woods Star Wars Part Deux. We made the USSR Go Broke with what was for the Most Part a Fictional Program. Don't think that Trick will Work a Second Time.
