First, I disagree that whoever controls the Moon controls the Earth.

Then you honestly have no grasp of the situation.

If the Moon were a decent military platform, we would already have one there.

We haven't because we understand the ramifications...and because we signed an international treaty. Are you suggesting that the U.S. should now break that treaty and risk thermonuclear war? If so, thank God people like you don't call the shots.

We aren't there because of the time delay, the logistics, the costs, plus the Moon doesn't stay in one spot, nor can its location be changed according to threats. What is it I don't understand?

We just broke the ABM treaty. Where's the thermonuclear war?
