Air Force Researching Antimatter Weapons

mlmitton writes "The San Francisco Chronicle is reporting that the Air Force is actively pursuing antimatter weapons. Such weapons would easy eclipse nuclear weapons in power, e.g., 1 gram of antimatter would equal 23 space shuttle fuel tanks of energy. Perhaps more interesting, after an initial inquiry by the Chronicle in the summer, the Air Force issued a gag order that prohibits any Air Force employee from discussing antimatter research or funding."

Just so long as North Korea does not get it!

...thus enabling the U.S. to finally complete its goal and take over all of the known world and become the Global Police agent it has worked hard to become these past twenty years.

This is only a small part of weapons research.

By some measures, the U.S. government is the most violent government in the history of the world. The U.S. government has directly killed an estimated 3,000,000 people since the end of the Second World War in 24 military actions.

The system of violence works by creating fear in citizens so rich people can profit. Purchases of oil for war making and purchases of weapons are areas that are secret enough that those who want corruption can make huge profits.

This is only a small part of weapons research, and you only heard about it because of an accidental leak.

It's 1:20 PM. Do you know what your government is doing? No, you don't.
