Energy-Beam Weapons Delayed

Written by The Associated Press

For years, the U.S. military has explored a new
kind of firepower that is instantaneous, precise and virtually inexhaustible: beams of electromagnetic energy. "Directed-energy" pulses can be throttled up or down depending on the situation, much like the phasers on Star Trek could be set to kill or merely stun.

Such weapons are now nearing fruition. But logistical issues have delayed their battlefield debut -- even as soldiers in Iraq encounter tense urban situations in which the non-lethal capabilities of directed energy could be put to the test.

"It's a great technology with enormous potential, but I think the environment's not strong for it," said James Jay Carafano, a senior fellow at the conservative Heritage Foundation who blames the military and Congress for not spending enough on getting directed energy to the front. "The tragedy is that I think it's exactly the right time for this."

The hallmark of all directed-energy weapons is that the target -- whether a human or a mechanical object -- has no chance to avoid the shot because it moves at the speed of light. At some frequencies, it can penetrate walls.


Senator Wellstone - R.I.P. - :-(

1. Does the name Dov Zakheim come up with this project? Either in

his DOD Financial Officer role or as head of a company that makes remote control for large and small aircraft?

With each day, with each revelation, I believe there is 100% motivation to take out Wellstone and 100% technological capability too accomplish it.

2. I know I'm gonna regret this, but...

What evidence is there that Wellstone was killed by anything other than engine failure?

3. I'm not saying that he was killed. I'm open. because I haven't

started to study it. I do plan to read the Fetzer book. (sp?)

There were strange 'coincidences' right after it happened that left me feeling very uneasy. I haven't written them up for a long time. I don't have time now. Sorry.

I am partial in many ways. I also believe the political hay made out of the memorial was despicable. Never have so many people got so much mileage from a small murmur of boos from one section of the auditorium. Yes, despicable.

There is nothing that these people won't do, so how pure can they get. Yes, I believe the worst about them.

But, there is still time for me to study the book and read the rebuttals and there is still time for further discoveries about the accident.

So, later, perhaps.

4. there is no evidence of engine "failure" - just everything suddenly

stopped worked - just as it would with a beam weapon.

No one can proove anything either way - but not too secret was a year earlier test of the beam technology.

Putting 2 and 2 together - albeit while wearing a tinfoil hat - makes "he was killed" plausible. Indeed the old Roman saying - "look to who benefits" - would point that way as Paul had pulled well ahead in the days before the crash.

7. Round about none.

5. This sounds like something Dr. Evil would write.

It's a direct energy electromagnetic beam that I call a "laser."

Look, there aren't lasers that shoot down airplanes. If there were, they wouldn't work in a snow storm.

Furthermore, there's a forum better suited for this "lasers caused the tsunami" stuff than the science forum. I think it's called the "meeting room."

6. There was no snow storm - and narrow beam EMF did not exist

when I was in school either.

I had a chance to glance at the write-up and did not understand if it was a "canceling" of emf outside of the beam area, or whether or not they had actually found a way to beam emf. If the latter I have no clue how it was done and indeed agree that based on public info and standard science, the concept is not possible.

Indeed the demo a year before Wellstone's death was just folks walking buy a wall and noting that audio was "broadcast" so that you could hear it only when standing in front of a given section of the wall. "Sound" went to "dead" silence between broadcast areas and you could not hear the other broadcast areas broadcasts, yet all areas broadcast at the same time so that someone - the folks in the correct position - could hear the appropriate for that section of the wall broadcast.

I suspected it was a canceling concept - until directed energy emf was suggested as the killer of Wellstone's plane - at which point the year earlier demo came to mind.

But then if we can laser photons - and we can - why not "laser" electrons?
