The reported conclusion of the recent NATO conference in Chicago
expresses primarily only one conclusion; that its long-planned European
missile shield is up and running. NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh
Rasmussen made the announcement at the end of the first day of the NATO
summit, stating that "the shield's 'interim capability' stage is the
first step in the goal of providing full coverage and protection for all
NATO Europe populations, territory, and forces from threats outside the
Euro-Atlantic area by 2022.
Considering that this
statement was made on the first day of the conference, and that the
stated objective of the NATO conference was discussion of 'smart
defence' of which the missile shield is only one aspect, the remaining
happy talk largely related to Afghanistan defies any true reporting of
the conference agenda. As stated in my previous article, NATO's own
definition of 'smart defence' is "Ballistic missile defence,
intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, maintenance".
From 'Summit Declaration on Defence Capabilities':
"We are deploying a highly sophisticated Alliance Ground Surveillance
system", "We have extended our air policing mission" - while this is
focussed on the Baltics, it is a declaration of NATO acting as a police
force, and "improving our defences against cyber attacks".
While
NATO is perceived publicly in a peace keeping profile of military
cooperation, it has since its origins been a military force to protect
economic and political interests. For an indepth review of NATO's
history, see: GLOBAL NATO: A Geostrategic Instrument of Worldwide Military Conquest. The minimal reporting of the event hides the intent of 'smart defence'. Again, quoting the Summit Declaration on Defence Capabilities'
"we must find new ways to cooperate more closely to acquire and
maintain key capabilities, prioritise on what we need most and consult
on changes to our defence plans. We should also deepen the connections
among the Allies and between them and our partners on the basis of
mutual benefit. Maintaining a strong defence industry in Europe and
making the fullest possible use of the potential of defence industrial
cooperation across the Alliance remain an essential condition for
delivering the capabilities needed for 2020 and beyond."
"Smart
Defence is at the heart of this new approach. The development and
deployment of defence capabilities is first and foremost a national
responsibility. But as technology grows more expensive, and defence
budgets are under pressure, there are key capabilities which many Allies
can only obtain if they work together to develop and acquire them. We
therefore welcome the decisions of Allies to take forward specific
multinational projects, including for better protection of our forces,
better surveillance and better training. These projects will deliver
improved operational effectiveness, economies of scale, and closer
connections between our forces. They will also provide experience for
more such Smart Defence projects in future."
Reporting
of the policing of protest in Chicago has been low key. However, this
itself represents an effective mirror of the nature of NATO engagement
and the allied application of policing. "In the final analysis the NATO
summit was a microcosm. The U.S. government displayed an overwhelming
force posture replete with bells and whistles, its respective agencies
and the city spent more than was needed, it trumped up terrorism to
malign forces it perceived as a threat, the entire affair received
little media coverage." NATO Summit in Rearview: The Big and Expensive Non-Event
As the hidden agenda focuses on full spectrum electro-magnetic dominance
to force upon the world the economic and political intent of the
military industrial complex, with the Bilderberg group meeting in less
than ten days, and the Rio+20 'Sustainable Development' (Agenda 21)
summit coming in June, stay focussed, and remember the geo-location
technology on your smart phone.
