Arsenal of Hypocrisy:The Space Program and the Military Industrial Complex is a documentary everyone should see.
First saw it on Free Speech TV (FSTV), and it scared the shit out of me. All that seems so strange with so much of what BushCo and the neocons of the PNAC have done over the last several years really makes sense after seeing this one-hour documentary.
Bruce Gagnon is the main speaker, as well as one of the producers, of this documentary.

About
Arsenal of Hypocrisy:The glory days of NASA are over! Today the Military Industrial Complex is marching towards world dominance through Space technology on behalf of global corporate interest. To understand how and why the space program will be used to fight all future wars on earth from space, it's important to understand how the public has been misled about the origins and true purpose of the Space Program.
"
The militarization of space is a real threat to survival, a serious threat to survival... maybe the end of the species." -- Noam Chomsky, professor at MIT and author
"If we have a war in space, in the vicinity of the earth, it will be the one and only. There will never be a second war in space and let me tell you why..." -- Edgar Mitchell, Apollo 14 astronaut
