He said it right there. If it has no possible military use, why did he even mention the military?

Nice bit of goal post rearrangement there, given an explicit direct quote in the article stating the satellite could have military applications. On what basis do you assert that Human Rights Watch are not capable of assessing the satellites capabilities and possible uses?



>He said it right there. If it has no possible military use, why did he even mention the military?

How do you get "the satellite could have military applications" from "The satellite was not designed for that"?

>On what basis do you assert that Human Rights Watch are not capable of assessing the satellites capabilities and possible uses?

You mean aside from "We won’t get involved in anything that has to do with the military. The satellite was not designed for that"? Why do you think the HRW has any capability to assess the possible applications of a satellite? Nothing on the HRW website either...
