So people who claim to be trek fans vote "galaxy quest" as 4th best star
trek movie ?

Okay this makes it official,....Trek is DEAD, and I'm blaming Jar Jar
Binks/Abrams for so f-ing the franchise up, that no one remembers what it
even started out as.
And the A.D.D fans now think TOS was lead by, Captain Tim Tiberious Allen.

<SIGH>

LOL.

"Blubberfest 2013".

-.-

President John F. Kennedy encountered problems with the Israeli
government regarding the production of nuclear weapons in Dimona.
Although the existence of a nuclear plant was initially denied by the
Israeli government, David Ben-Gurion, in a speech to the Israeli
Knesset on December 21, 1960, stated that the purpose of the nuclear
plant established at Beersheba was for "research in problems of arid
zones and desert flora and fauna". When Ben-Gurion met with Kennedy
in New York, he claimed that Dimona was being developed to provide
nuclear power for desalinization and that "for the time being the only
purposes (of the nuclear plant) are for peace".

Kennedy did not believe this, and in May 1963 sent a letter to
Ben-Gurion stating, "this commitment and this support would seriously
be jeopardized in the public opinion in this country and the West as a
whole if it should be thought that this Government was unable to
obtain reliable information on a subject as vital to peace as Israel's
efforts in the nuclear field."

Ben-Gurion repeated previous reassurances that Dimona was being
developed for peaceful purposes, and Israel firmly resisted American
pressure to open its nuclear facilities to International Atomic Energy
Agency (IAEA) inspections. According to Seymour Hersh, the Israelis
set up false control rooms to show American inspectors. Abe Feinberg
stated, "It was part of my job to tip them off that Kennedy was
insisting on (an inspection)."

The State Department argued that if Israel wanted U.S. tanks, it
should be prepared in return to accept international supervision of
its nuclear program. Kennedy had tried to control the arms being sold
and given to Israel because the Israelis would not sign the IAEA
compacts for the Dimona nuclear site, would not fully admit its
purpose and continued to insist it was for peaceful energy purposes.

(And we all know what happened in Dallas, in 1963.)

In early March 1965, the director of the State Department's Office of
Near Eastern Affairs, Rodger P. Davies, had come to the conclusion
that Israel was developing nuclear weapons. He reported that the
target date for acquisition of a nuclear capability by Israel was
1968-69. A science attache at the embassy in Tel Aviv concluded that
parts of the Dimona facility had been "purposely mothballed" to
mislead American scientists during their visit.

Dimona was never placed under IAEA safeguards despite efforts made by
various U.S. administrators and presidents. On May 1, 1968,
Undersecretary of State Katzenbach told President Johnson that Dimona
was producing enough plutonium to produce two bombs a year. Attempts
to write Israeli adherence to the NPT into contracts for the supply of
U.S. weapons continued throughout 1968.

From that time until the present, Israel has amassed hundreds of
illegal nuclear weapons of mass destruction, and not only continues to
defy and ignore IAEA, NPT, and UN regulations, but also routinely
threatens all other nations of the world with nuclear annihilation if
anyone dares to interfere with their plans for world domination
(Google: "Sampson Option").

Now . . . who do you think is the REAL rogue threat to world peace?
Here's a clue: It certainly isn't Iran (or Mel Gibson, even).

Well at least I looked at the link.
Obviously you did not, so are still rambling about things you personally
know nothing about.

....Or are you one of those a.d.d. people who voted for Galaxy Quest as a
Star Trek Movie ?

Galaxy Quest is not a Star Trek movie. No matter if it was a parody or a
homage or whatever. Doesn't belong on a serious list, no way no how.

Yeah, I know. But it was on the original list so I carried it on. :-)
I even considered including that feature length episode of Star Wreck. If I
had it would have taken a place between TUC and Generations. :-D
