Bruce Gagnon is the founder and director of the Global Network Against Nuclear Power and Weapons in Space. On this subject he states: "Star Wars is back and it's worse that ever. The Bush Administration is pushing to make space into an arena of war and the frontier for future multi-planetary corporations. National Missile Defense is a misnomer. The U.S. proposal is a provacative, aggressive program aimed at weaponizing space and dominating the world below."
