Star Wars
The battle for space
The Chinese spy satellite disintegrated in space – and then Trump started talking about American control of space.
When arranging the following events by hours and days, a very unusual chain of events emerges,
July 17: Iran launches a missile attack on the American air force base in Jordan.
3 American soldiers are killed.
According to The Wall Street Journal, American officials determined that high-resolution satellite images provided to Iran by Chinese sources helped it monitor the base.
July 20 -
Three days after the attack, Trump issues a direct threat:
"Every time Iran kills an American soldier, it will pay many times over for that killing."
He says the directive was conveyed to senior American security officials.
Late July - early August
The Chinese reconnaissance satellite Yaogan-50 – a satellite for collecting information and images – disintegrates in orbit; the reason for the disintegration is unknown.
September 4 – The American Space Force identifies and catalogs at least 43 debris fragments related to the disintegration of the Chinese satellite – there is no American announcement stating that the satellite was destroyed.
There is no Chinese announcement explaining why it disintegrated.
Nor is there public evidence that there was an American action against it.
And then come the truly interesting two days:
September 6, 13:48 -
Trump publishes a picture of the "next generation" design of American Space Force uniforms.
The design includes dark, futuristic-style uniforms, with colors like "space gray" and "midnight black."
The picture states that the design was inspired by the uniforms from the movie "Starship Troopers" – and is adapted for "guardians of the space domain."
September 6 - 13:56 -
Just eight minutes after the uniform design was published, Trump posts a picture of the moon with the caption:
"Our moon."
September 6 - 15:26:
About an hour and a half later, Trump publishes another picture under the title: "Space Force"
In the picture, he is seen sitting inside a futuristic space control center, surrounded by Space Force personnel, alongside spacecraft and explosions in space.
All of this happens just two days after the American Space Force revealed the disintegration of the Chinese satellite.
Then, a few days later, comes the report that reconnects the entire story:
September 11: The Wall Street Journal publishes details about the Chinese satellite images provided to Iran and their connection to the attack in which 3 American soldiers were killed.
September 13 – Trump is asked about Chinese espionage activity – he says that China spies on the US – and that Americans spy on China.
So what do we know?
1. Iran attacked an American base and killed 3 soldiers,
2. Chinese sources were accused of providing satellite images and location data to Iran.
3. Trump threatened that Iran would pay a heavy price.
4. A Chinese reconnaissance satellite disintegrated in orbit shortly thereafter.
5. The American Space Force revealed the debris of the Chinese satellite – shortly thereafter, Trump published a design for Space Force uniforms.
6. Eight minutes later:
"THE MOON IS OURS."
7. An hour and a half later – another picture under the title "Space Force."
The question on the table is – did the US destroy the Chinese Yaogan-50 satellite?
Although there is currently no public proof of this, the public timing certainly made this event very unusual.
Because in less than two hours, after the Chinese satellite became public, the US President published a message about American Space Force uniforms, declared "Our moon" – and then published a picture of himself in a Space Force control center.
Coincidence?
We think not.
If someone in Hollywood had written this script, the editor would probably have told them they exaggerated.
