It is starting again…

...and this time I had nothing to do with it.

SFTG:SWORD is a pioneer in space based infantry combat.
That is: Infantry soldiers in space.
We handle rescue missions, sabotage, assaults, ship to ship combat, extravehicular tactics, planetary reconnaissance, etc, etc.

SWORD has engaged in the new field of battle against the Russians – even capturing and landing one of their own shuttles. [GASP] All of this came to a head and ended somewhere in 1997’ with a truce between the two superpowers of the time – the United States and Russia. All of that is a different story for a different time…

Suddenly – we have something
afoot … in space – and I am shocked [not shocked] about how and why it is happening – and shocked [not shocked] to how it is completely NOT being talked about.

We all remember when the U.S. shot down one of its own satillite as a test right? Hell, Hogland even wrote a two piece article about how it was magical numbers and all. Regardless of what they called it – see it for what it is – a lookie-lou onto what capabilities we have had for over ten years. Chances are this isn’t the first time anyone has shot down a satellite – let alone US. This was a public, world wide, muscle flexing.

Now the soviets are in on it – as where the
Chinese governments prior …

The interesting thing is how suppressed this action has been in the media this time around…


Now the devil is in the details…

I found this Google article reference [sorry no link to search] – not the actual article mind you - on
Russian Space Web and I was surprised by the headline: “Arrow hits the target.”
What?
Could it be confusion of names or a inside jibe of what really went down? The Russian military has a Strela – but it’s a
shoulder mounted missile…nicknamed "Arrow'
What?

…the thing that collided with our communications satellite was a Russian Military satellite, called a Strela2M and is not nicknamed “arrow’…so what’s this Russian born space journalist really trying to say? …and why has the article been stripped from his website [to the best of my knowledge]?
What?!
A Russian journalist of this caliber who has wrote for many EU organizations couldn't get a nickname wrong... ...could he?


Now we get into some potatoes to go with that meat.
CBS reported a bland stock ho-hum&dumb cut/paste reponse you'll find just about everywhere buried on teh web:

“Air Force Brig. Gen. Michael Carey, deputy director of global operations with U.S. Strategic Command, the agency responsible for space surveillance, said initial radar tracking detected some 600 pieces of debris. He identified the Russian spacecraft as Cosmos 2251, a communications relay station launched in June 1993, and said the satellite is believed to have been non-operational for the past 10 years or so. Iridium Satellite LLC operates a constellation of some 66 satellites, along with orbital spares, to support satellite telephone operations around the world.” [My italics]

What they don’t mention is the fact that a Russian military communication satellite hit our civilian communication satellite. Why wouldn’t a United States military general state that it was a Russian military satellite hitting a civilian communication satellite – cover up? – non-issue? – just no big deal?
Please!

Heres more from another [lost link] site…
“The Russian satellite was out of control, said Mark Matney, an orbital debris scientist at Johnson Space Center in Houston.”

Out of control? [Sniff - bullshit -sniff]
For how long? It just managed to hit this satellite by accident? Folks – that’s like hitting a bullet with a bullet. Not impossible – by certainly not likely either... ...certianly from an out of control satilite!

Now heres something interesting from the Chinese media:
“MOSCOW, Feb. 12 (Xinhua) -- The collision between two satellites of the United States and Russia on Tuesday would be the result of a failure on the part of the U.S. Iridium satellite, an official of the Russian Defense Ministry told Xinhua Thursday.”

This is starting to sound like small claims court. He hit me – no you hit me.
It is interesting to see how major news organizations the world over respond to this sort of thing.

Especially the Russians…
…who don’t have links on there front pages either for this event.
Pravda & RIA Novosti

Now – lets ask a question.
Who was using the civilian based communications satellite?
From CNN:
“CNN is "one of the larger non-government users" of Iridium, said Arnie Christianson, operations manager for CNN Satellites and Transmission. "We do rely on it for communication in high-risk areas like Iraq, Afghanistan, and other remote locations," he said.


Really?

Americas "#1" cable news organization, who is doing constant daily reporting from this war zone... ...just had its primarly mode of communication sacked by an "out of control" Russian Military Communication satilite? ...and the best anyone can say is ...OOPS!?
And whos ass is all over this disputed region reporting?
That’s right!
The crack squad of uber-professional news special forces - just ready to pounce and film anytime something goes boom or a body drops to the ground– complete with their own ready room with a newscaster with a bullet proof beard – aka “the wolf" ...just had there ass's handed to them - by the Russian military.

Now, I know what your thinking – ahhhhh swords gone off the deep end… …again…
But let me ask you another question… …have you read "Sun Tzu – The Art of War"?
A few key elements of war are to cut communications of the opposing force, and limit, if not completely restrict the movement of your enemy.

Russia – just proved – that they can do both in one fell swoop.


At this rate – any shuttle in space conducting peace or war time operations would be the equivalent of running the whole mission running through flack the size of tennis balls. Great.
Why would anyone especially, the russians do this? [Missile Sheild Deffense ... mabye?]

Space is the new highway – it’s the new battlefield.
Any nation that doesn’t have a space program can recognize that. Any nation that has had the initiative has been preparing for is since Von Braun started terrorizing Britain with his early version of death from above. Hell, the United States started this in the thirties – any everyone has been playing catch up ever since. Sure their have been some serious players – but – they all seemed to lose in the end.
So – now it’s down to doing the best you can with what you got. Ramming your satellites - or shooting your missiles - into somebody else’s satellites - create a disruption in communications and at the same time laying a virtual [and sometimes not virtual] minefield in an area you couldn’t dare hope to control anyway… …if you can’t use it – destroy it and/or abuse it.

Gentlemen, ladies – wars have started over far less…

Why the downplay?


Is the secrect space war escalateing to the point that it is starting to spread into mainstream media drip by drip? Is this secret space war going to come out in the open with the pending disclosure and revelations?

Hmmmmm...

Next blog topic…
…its been like a month now – where’s all this hope and change? - where’s the "we choose to go to the moon speech?
Yes! We … errr … ahhh … can ... procrastinate?

True American Idiots at FOX News 'Red Eye' spouting crass garbage about Canada and our military in Afghanistan.

Real shame the slam they made, is becoming a serious incident.

(I think maybe an effort to derail Obama/Canada relations right after his visit here.)

Ya and right in the midst of us bringing home 4 more who gave the ultimate sacrifice.

Why is it at military levels and science ie space etc we are unwaveringly staunch allies but step just below that to the low bar of the common media and voila!! total brain drain?

You know it Sword, you guys who fight along side, know 'we' step up, and we have had your backs many times.

We are hardly 10% of the total American population and we do what we can....and we garner respect abroad as much as we are FEARED in the bloodiest work.

The warriors of our flags know the real deal, but the media assholes can paint a black swath, that will fool the common joe soooo easily.

Lets hope someone does some serious damage control..really damn soon.

I was avoiding the rollover to comment 201, but Ion had the honor, after someone got his dander up!

So, since Haogie mentioned the financial meltdown in his theory of the satellite collision and the submarine collision, I am wondering how much of the trillions of "toxic assets" is actually "magic money" for the white hat (or yellow beret) black ops, and how much is magic money of the secret cabal behind the "collision?"

Check this Flight 93 video

IonTruO2 said...

Yes, got my dander up.
Had to vent to a 'boots on the ground' kind of guy from the good ol USA who knows.

These bozo's are making you guys(America) look bad.
Meanwhile you guys know who has the tough spots in Helmann Prov and Kandahar and a few others. ;)
At NORAD level too, we are all brothers and work hand in hand and share commands. But I will say that FOX News slur, sure has everyone up here royally pissed.

Gort said...

MeanGreen, it sounds like the "true" story of Flight 93 is a moving target.

Hoagie always says, "The lie is different at every level."

From the looks of the video, the lie (about Flight 93) is different every other day...

We may neever know what really happened, but it wasn't what the official story (ies) said.
IMHO LOL

I think the whole show is a moving target. Given that 11 Trillion has been taken out of the economy through retirement, real estate savings etc. since October, 2008, you have to wonder why we don't seem to notice what has taken generations of your parents hewing and drawing, all pissed up a rope in 4 months. I'm still waiting for that labour saving device called the tractor (which apparently does the work of 5,000)

to accrue to the public purse.

IonTruO2 said...

How do all those 100's of thousands of soldiers families feel as slowly the 911 story starts to unravel and reveal?
Surely everyone in the States is not still wholeheartedly believing the appearance of the events?

That Flight 93 video is but one good example, on top of the Pentagon one, where one starts to see just how bad 'the theater' of it really was....and to think it actually fooled everyone... just like the towers.

Perhaps it is hindsight forensic observation ;) ...that helps make it all so clear, I don't know, but the more I see of the academic questions arising from legit credentialed people, the more it all seems like a real lame false flag operation...yet it worked.

Maybe the end might have been in some way justified and necessary but boy oh boy the means sure doesn't justify it.

So...
To turn this blog back on course - has anyone else smelled this nugget yet?

"Our finding is very significant," said analytical chemist Pamela Mosier-Boss of the US Navy's Space and Naval Warfare Systems Center (SPAWAR) in San Diego, California.

The Liny - Linkage:

Remember the F1-17 rule:
If its annoanced as "new"

Now THINK folks...
Two things :
WHY is the Naval Space Command "working" on fusion...
AND - how long have WE had it before we let you KNOW we have it...?

Still working up nerw blogg post.

MeanGreen said...

Thanks for the link. My guess would be since 1945.

"We're talking about a new field of science that's a hybrid between chemistry and physics."


I always thought
Stanton Friedman was the
cover-boy for the "US FUSiON TECH"(UFO's are the answer-Yeah Right!) ;-)

Ok Ok boss..back on topic.
Time for an OT smackdown.

How about this one that is a little older, but oh so true. ;)

French Say 'Non' to U.S. Disclosure of Secret Satellites



BROYE-LES-PESMES, France - A French space-surveillance radar has detected 20-30 satellites in low Earth orbit that do not figure in the U.S. Defense Department's published catalogue, a discovery that French officials say they will use to pressure U.S. authorities to stop publishing the whereabouts of French reconnaissance and military communications satellites.

After 16 months of operations of their Graves radar system, which can locate satellites in orbits up to 1,000 kilometers in altitude and even higher in certain cases, the French Defense Ministry says it has gathered just about enough information to negotiate an agreement with the United States.

The U.S. Defense Department's Space Surveillance Network is the world's gold standard for cataloguing satellites and debris in both low Earth orbit and the higher geostationary orbit at 36,000 kilometers in altitude, where telecommunications satellites operate.

Data from the U.S. network of ground-based sensors is regularly published and used worldwide by those tracking satellite and space-debris trajectories. The published U.S. information excludes sensitive U.S. defense satellites, but regularly publishes data on the orbits of other nations' military hardware.


the Graves radar, and a complementary system operated by the German government, together already are enough to pinpoint the location, size, orbit and transmissions frequencies of satellites that the United States would prefer not be broadcast worldwide, French officials said.

"We have discussed the Graves results with our American colleagues and highlighted the discrepancies between what we have found and what is published by the U.S. Space Surveillance Network," said one French defense official responsible for the Graves operation.

"They told us, 'If we have not published it in our catalogue, then it does not exist.' So I guess we have been tracking objects that do not exist. I can tell you that some of these non-existent objects have solar arrays."
