Military Space Policy in 2012

What are Dinerman's predictions regarding what President Obama or President McCain will face in their first term?

• Geopolitically the world will probably not look much different
• The solar system will not have changed according to the laws of physics and the laws of gravity
• The middle east will remain the primary center of war and political violence unless.....US and/or Israel take dramatic action
• Iran will continue it's nuclear missile program unless...US and/or Israel take dramatic action
• China, Russia, France as well as smaller world players such as Japan, South Korea, and Israel and others will initiate or continue to develop and perfect their defensive military space presence
• The US will not deploy any space weapons but will have maximized it's own space defense capability as a precaution to inevitable war in space
• The early warning SBIRS satellites from the US will have reached their geosynchronous orbit
• TSAT will continue to be used to monitor safe radio frequency usage if it survives the political arena
• ORS will have produced useful satellites but nothing new in technological scope.
• "Operationally Responsive Space will, by 2012, have produced a small number of useful satellites, but will not have revolutionized the field. After a major embarrassment caused by the publication of a satellite image that directly contradicted the words of at least one major world leader, commercial remote sensing satellites will have improved and will multiply as more and more politicians will want to have their own private access to overhead imagery."
• NRO optical spy satellites will continue to be defensively unprotected by any world treaties therefore exposed to Global spacewar pressures
• By 2012 the US will have advanced to the Atlas 5 and Delta 4 series of space launch vehicles and continue to use the Delta 2 class for smaller payloads
• The new Secretary of US Defense will find it hard to deal with the mission statement of the Space Defense Program while it remains under the rules of the old command structure and it is unlikely that the new Presidential House will have the charisma to change that structure by 2012.
• However while the new Congress will have it's hands tied on old issues it will find the means to clear paths on future issues easier which will become evident on decision made in 2009 and 2010
