Selective Outrage
Don't hold your breath, Thomas. He has a smarter (or at least more comprehensible and grammatical) Bruce Gagnon rant:
I’m sure when he does mention it, however, it will be to point out how it's all our fault -- that innocent China merely perceived the US’ own ASAT programs as a threat to which it had to respond in kind. After all, the US is the wellspring of all evil, ill-will, and bad things in the universe, especially under the fascist, jackboot rule of Chimpy McBushhitler. China's actions are simply a regrettable response to the U.S.' provocative moves to militarize space. After all, non-Western countries -- being peaceable, sharing, spiritual, and in every way morally superior by nature -- are simple stimulus-response organisms, incapable of undertaking such tut-tuttable actions of their own free will and in furtherance of their own self-selected goals.
I've some thoughts on the Chinese ASAT test as well, but I expect them to appear at TCSDaily today or tomorrow.
