A planet policed by the US, anyone?

Question

The US has plans to control space with their STARWARS program or NMD and if it becomes a reality, the US would be the total dictator of the planet we all call home. It would mean total control of all sea, land, air, space and cybersp ace, which in reality means total and absolute control over the planet and of course the ability to strike at other countries without fear of retaliation. WORLD DOMINANCE was on the agenda the moment they withdrew unilaterally from the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty which has banned the so called Starwars program.Does it means that the planet as a whole agrees to be under the dictate of the US and how so?

By withdrawing from the AMBT, SDI becomes non-binding for the US. About it being just a plan, we will see.

Are u on Californian Grass or something that makes you say atheist China or are you just dumb and ignorant.

So basically, the Us, after consolidating it military aparatus through globalization and the fight on terror as its platform is going to stop practising DEMOCRACY but world DICTATORSHIP? So, interestingly, where are all the advocates of democracy or is it only for the ONES WITH THE POWER. We have always known about the Us's motives. Now they are even telling Russia that they should not use their veto power to justify the suspension of the US NMD starwars program. DEMOCRACY my foot.Starting with my vote as a citizen of this planet, i vote no to US hegemony! Care to join me?

Answer 1

Sadly, you are correct. The USA spends more on warfare and policing than the rest of the world put together. The USA does police the planet, and unfortunately it does so corruptly and with bias. The USA controls the world's resources through the dollar. The USA controls the world's communications through space.
This is the same country that during the 1970's dropped more bombs on the poorest country in the world - Laos - than were dropped during the entire 2nd World War, so that should make us all feel pretty secure.
Why do we let them get away with it? The few countries in the world who object - Cuba - Iran - Libya - Venezuela - North Korea - France - etc etc don't have anything better to offer.

Answer 2

You are taking quite a leap of faith there buddy. Slow down, step back, take a deep breath, and look at it from a wider perspective. Even if the plan was to dominate space the fact remains that at this point it is still that - a plan. I plan to be the richest man in the world, does that mean I can buy my own submarine, jet, and the Philadelphia Eagles next week? No.

Even the greatest technology ever created does not guarantee absolute control. That is a foolish assumption that has no purpose before the fact.

And most importantly, how can the "plan" be so close to reality since the ABMT banned the SDI?

I can think of many greater things that this world needs to be concerned with. Terrorism, over-population, indifference, apathy, arrogance, global warming, over-industrialization, greed. Our time spent on these subjects can be more fruitful if we work at it.

Answer 3

If what has written by HG wells is going to happen,it has already happened.Now with the collapse of USSR,the world govt headed by US has become reality.It is a fact there is no power at present to challenge US.If you talk about China it is only a regional power,but not a financial power.Since might is right,star wars and ABM has become redundant.The world dominance by US is inevitable and there is no alternative.Sorrry to disappoint.(I am not from USA)

Answer 4

no it does not mean the planet agrees it is time the un became effective it is the policeman of the world not the u.s. also if they do this it is time to stop calling kim iljong a dictator and saying a country not as large as the u.s. which largely keeps the u.s. from invading through nuclear weapons is being mistreated by kim lljongand and admit the u.s. is the dictator, also there is a claim kim iljong starves his countrymen to fund his army who has the largest army in the world who is the most powerfull and constantly reminds people of it the u.s. that's who

Answer 5

Wow, is this the best you have to worry about? Say the US does take over the world? So what? Who would you rather take it over? Someone like Sadam? Hitler? Mussolini? The US has more checks and balances that any other nation. They aren't always right, but a damn site better than most.

Answer 6

you need medication, only someone deeply disturbed would invent far out wackey things like this to worry about. Grow up, worry about something you have some control over rather than ragging on the US. Get a stuffed animal, it wont argue with you as you start to go off the deep end.

Answer 7

It probably IS time for the UN to become the "policeman of the world" (if indeed we are ever going to have such an entity). Trouble is that the US is refusing to pay the dues for membership of the UN, and at last count, they owed several billion dollars in "back pay"...... It's OK to say "I'm the boss", but if you have no money to be the boss with, you end up being a bit of a toothless tiger.

It would be nice if eneryone could get on together, but I doubt that will ever happen, still, I live in hope

Answer 8

They may try, but it will not happen, when you try to control too much, you become the common enemy and will be quickly dealt with, some people think the USA is unbeatable, but you just have to look at Iraq, and Afghanistan, to see we can be beat by nearly ancient methods.

Answer 9

I can hardly wait to get this puppy operational!Treaties are like promises meant to be broken. I defy you to find one country that respected any treaty other than the USA. Time to grow up kid...Learn the term NATIONAL SECURITY/NATIONAL INTERESTS.

Answer 10

someone is going to be the "Superpower", now, would u rather have communist and athiest China telling you what to do and controlling the world, or the USA...
