Delusional partisans

Over at Kos we read this tantalizing headline:

Chinese Anti-Satellite Blast Product of U.S. Star Wars Policy

The proof of such a statement? Well, according to Mr. Meteor Blades it is this:

However, if U.S. space policy is specifically designed with the intention to deny freedom of action to adversaries, then other countries are going to want the same. And if the U.S. isn’t willing to sign treaties attempting to hinder aggressive use of space, then what cautious world leader would not conclude aggressive intent on the part of the U.S.?

You see, China and other nations really have no interest in developing space weapons, they’re only doing it because they see us as being aggressive. You could substitute ‘U.S.’ with the name of any nation and it would be just as valid, which invalidates the the whole thesis.

Darn it, if we would just act all peaceful and stuff so would everybody else!
