    That nation has announced that they will try to put a man in space
    on their own by the end of the decade.  Since we plan on providing
    space for spacers of most other nationalities on the shuttle, their
    promise that the technology will be "used for peaceful purposes
    only" does not ring true with me.

Indeed, why would they conceivably want to do something on their own if they
can be dependent on us instead!
