Friendly NGOs are making at present all efforts to prevent development
(research), testing and deployment of BMDs which will lead to space
weaponisation but other BMDs are already operating and ready to be involved
in military activities. As a result
weapons will eventually be deployed in space. The following are the
facts:
A joint US, Israeli and Turkish maneuver by air forces had been conducted
since June,
17, 2001 and will continue until June, 29. Egyptian papers carried
information that
operation by Israeli Arrow TMD system, produced and deployed with US
financial and
technical assistance, was part of the maneuver. Interceptors were targeted
against
(imaginary) missiles supposed to be launched by Syria, Iraq and Iran. This
was the
first regional TMD maneuver with the participation of US and its allies. It
has
revealed the following:
a) Operations of TMD systems will create military alliances dividing
regional states
into two groups: those which are behind the shield and others located
outside the
shield.
b) Destabilization which is supposed to affect the three states, Syria,
Iraq and Iran
is actually destabilizing the entire region comprising all countries of the
region
which have relations with the three states and most probably will go far
beyond the
Middle East.
c) US participation in the Arrow system operation clearly proofs that
this TMD system
is part and parcel of the entire US-BMD project which covers the
entire planet.
d) Far from facing an imaginary aggression against the huge military
forces of US and
its allies TMD deployment is designed to support counter proliferation
operations
against threats by any state at US interests and investments in the Middle
East.
