Anyone clued up on weapons of war? (are there any other sorts?) With the upcoming anniversary, there are a few articles pushing the trade centre conspiracy theories, some of which seem credible in small bits, but incredible when you consider all the other factors. One theory, by Dr Judy Wood is interesting, but for me it falls over because of how it would need to have been carried out. Without trawling over the detail, her theory relies on a weapon that sounds like it's out of star wars, a directed energy weapon, possibly fueled by Hurricane Errin A quick look seems to imply such a weapon is not only feasible, but has been tested, albeit nothing like as refined as would be needed for her theory. What Star trek type weapons or technology are in the pipeline?
Saw on the telly the other day autonomous weapon systems are the way things are going. Not good no matter how hard they try to sell it, a love child of Robocop and Terminator.
I can't find a clip that's interesting in sound bites or doesn't sound tin foil hat, but the Hutchinson Effect sounds interesting from the clips I've seen.
I can't remember which one, but one comedian made the point that, if they have the technology to guide a bomb through a window 1,000's of miles away, why not swap the war head for food, and use the technology to help the starving.
Always thought all of the 9/11 conspiracy stuff falls down on the number of people who would be in the know. Someone always blabs in the end.
Some of those things are incredible, yet before they're in the field, it seems the opposition already have a counter measure. The battle for dominance just seems like this to me.
Most rely on more organisation and logistic ability than I think most of those accused are capable of.
Dominos Pizza delivery type thing. Beverley Road to Baghdad, one 12" pepperoni and a bottle of Dandelion and Burdock. I wonder if you would get it for nowt if it arrived cold?
Yeah . Especially the one where it was collapsed with planted explosives. You think some of the 10k who worked in the towers may of noticed.
The Dutch are working on weaponising Johnny Metgod's talent for 30-yard thunderbolts. (The result would, of course, be a blast from the past.)
It fascinates me how much technology has advanced in the last few decades, and how we take it for granted and end up relying on it. Then you watch old sci-fi films, and we're supposed to be hovering about dressed like silver tour de France riders and carrying ray guns and having a pill instead of food by now.
Weapons technology has advanced, yet the more sophisticated we get the more rudimentary terrorist attacks seem to be?
Was going to post something like that, the good guys going down the technology route while the baddies go back to basics. A lesson you would have thought they learnt in Vietnam.
