"The Pentagon is using sophisticated satellites that orbit Earth in a bid to track down its enemies and keep a round-the-clock watch on unfriendly foes."

I think we need to develop a space based , individual human targetable weapon system , that we can employ to take out such despots and world threats such as Kim jong Il and Achmedhandjob . Just zap them from space and have done with them. Why invade entire countries , risking our precious soldiers and other treasures to take out these miscreants?
And then have to carry the moral responsibility to nation build in the aftermath ? How much better it would be to just eliminate the main source of the trouble , the renegade leaders. Call it G.O.D. (global opposition destroyer ?)

It a possibility. Did you see the movie "Real Genius"? The premise of the movie was a creation of a space based system that can kill a person.
