Why did my PC lock up when i started looking at Area 51 in Google Earth, are we sure there not watching us :-)

We ARE all being watched when we start getting close to the real truth or start to shape up as a possible threat to the State.

Quite possibly more truth in that than you might imagine --- not just by our own "State" either ---- but then, I am just being paranoid  :-/

In one word; NO!

....and indeed if we become a perceived threat to the USA we will be watched and dealt with accordingly.  

Shhhhhh

[VXL V6]

We are no threat to the US, they have a better use for us....

UK Mainland is just an early warning system for US, principle being that if you put US defence systems here we become a target and because the distances to the US from almost anywhere are further then we get hit first.... US get's about 14 minutes warning from us getting hit until it's their turn.

Well that was the principle in the Cold War era of ICBM's, but of course everyone thinks no one has nuclear weapons now....

[HolyCount]

They don't need us to be hit as a warning -- they will be alerted within seconds of a launch -- then I aimagine a few silos we know nothing about will open up here and launch a retaliatory strike, which will hit home before the offensive strike hits the US.

However, if that did happen, who hits who first would be academic, cos we will al fry together.

As we know the various "powers" have the capability to destroy this planet quite a few times over -- but once will be enough !!!!!

And, one day, It will happen ...........

Nothing as destructive, greedy, and downright wrong as mankind I am affraid.

'Course ... it's being so cheerful that keep me going

That is actually the point; in the days of the cold war it was state versus state, with heavy military hardware involved.  Now it can simply be the individual terrorist, or a small group of them, that can cause carnage that will make 9/11 look like a day out in the park.

As individuals (a "horizontal" force), no longer as the state ("vertical" force), we can very much be a threat to the latter and especially the USA if we were so inclined.  That is the dilemma of modern state security; truely the enemy from within, like never before, can destroy it by deploying almost handheld (nuclear / germ / 'dirty') devices.

As long as I get to do a few miles in the buggy first ......... ( at the rate I work that will buy us some time !!!!)

LOL

Only problem being.... It's true!

Primary targets are military, first strike taking out strategic radar and silos, no radar then no accurate predicted impacts.
First strike was the percieved winner due to less return strikes but the operation of 'dead mans hand' type launch protocol made it pretty much pointless.

Even now, people don't quite get that even a small (Kiloton rather then Megaton) device will still cause massive damage and fallout (if ground burst) and huge Z Zones.

Gonna shut up now before I start on about DR7's and EMP!!!!

Yes VXL, we can certainly frighten ourselves if we think too deeply about this!  As in the cold war you and your family just hope that you don't know anything about it if the worst happens.

We strayed a long way of the main point of this thread, Area 51, or did we really?
