Full Version: Should we blast Goldeneye?
I just came across this interesting article The Power of the Dish and the War of Ideas
on the impact of satellite broadcasting into Iran, and was wondering this:
What sort of case can be made to "terminate" third party satellite jamming systems that are interfering with international broadcasting? Consider the scenario contained within the article: The National Iranian Television Network, owned and operated by Iranian exiles living in Los Angeles, is being jammed by Cuba, apparently at the behest of the Mullahs.
Do we send in Fletch/Flint/Bond/Bourne/Remo to destroy the jamming source? Mayhap a flight of F-117s or B-2s? What does international law say about this? If the exiles take it upon themselve to "clean up the signal", do we turn them over to Cuba?
Grace and peace, BD
(p.s. The "Goldeneye" facility from the Bond movie of the same name was, I believe, located in Cuba. Coinkidink? I think not.
The dish from the movie is actually located in Arecibo, Puerto Rico.)
