I don’t know why. All they have to do is say this would be a violation of the Outer Space Treaty and leave it at that. A short paragraph any intern could write.

That’s the plan anyway.

Maybe this will finally completely invalidate the whitehouse.gov petitions system.

Like I said here before funding a nuclear pulse propulsion battlecruiser with some sort of mass driver would be fun. The Death Star is full of technology we can’t make. Besides it is awfully flawed. I agree with the people wanting the Yamato instead. The Wave Motion Gun is just too useful and there is something to be said about running your faster than light engines in reverse in order to blow up something.

Other alternatives to the Yamato would be a Vorlon Cruiser or Shadow Battlecrab. The Planet Killers just look too lame sorry.

Just call it a Space Drone and they’ll be all over it. Be sure to use the Low Power setting when pointed at Earth-bound targets.

Nah, I think we really need a fleet of copies of Alliance Space Ship Vorpal Blade.

The (D) White House will never go for this, they hate the military and will never give them this level of importance in a ‘budget’! As if they’ll ever have a budget again.
