Mr. Speaker, the defence minister still will not come clean on star wars.
Fact: the former assistant U.S. defense secretary calls missile defence “Star Wars II”. Fact: the U.S. Missile Defense Agency is budgeting for 304 interceptors in space. Fact: both George Bush and Donald Rumsfeld have called, on the record, for the weaponization of space.
How can the government deny all of this evidence and continue to pretend that missile defence is not about weaponizing space?
