In 2003, then Secretary of Defence Donald Rumsfeld signed a document
called the Information Operation Roadmap which outlined, among other
things, the Pentagon's desire to dominate the entire electromagnetic
spectrum.
If you are unfamiliar with this document, more detail can be found in
a previous article here.
Dominate
From the Information Operation Roadmap:
    "We Must Improve Network and Electro-Magnetic Attack Capability.
To prevail in an information-centric fight, it is increasingly
important that our forces dominate the electromagnetic spectrum with
attack capabilities." [emphasis mine] - 6
    "Cover the full range of EW [Electronic Warfare] missions and
capabilities, including navigation warfare, offensive counterspace,
control of adversary radio frequency systems that provide location and
identification of friend and foe, etc." - 61
    "Provide a future EW capability sufficient to provide maximum
control of the entire electromagnetic spectrum, denying, degrading,
disrupting, or destroying the full spectrum of globally emerging
communication systems, sensors, and weapons systems dependant on the
electromagnetic spectrum." [emphasis mine] - 61
    "DPG [Defense Planning Guidance] 04 tasked USD(AT&L) [Under
Secretary of Defense for Acquisition, Technology and Logistics], in
coordination with the CJCS [Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff] and
Services, to develop recommendations to transform and extend EW
capabilities, ... to detect, locate and attack the full spectrum of
globally emerging telecommunications equipment, situation awareness
sensors and weapons engagement technologies operating within the
electromagnetic spectrum." [emphasis mine] - 59 
Stealthy Platforms Above Your House
    "Develop a coherent and comprehensive EW [Electronic Warfare]
investment strategy for the architecture that... Pay particular
attention to:
    - (U) Projecting electronic attack into denied areas by means of
stealthy platforms... As a matter of priority, accelerates joint
development of modular EW payloads for the Unmanned Combat Aerial
Vehicle." [emphasis mine] - 62 
It is interesting to see the mention of stealthy platforms like
unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) because they are now patrolling both
the Canadian and Mexican borders of the United States and will soon be
patrolling the arctic. With funding supplied by Homeland Security, US
police departments are also using UAVs to spy on the citizens below. A
couple of examples are Sacramento, California and...
    "one North Carolina county is using a UAV equipped with low-light
and infrared cameras to keep watch on its citizens. The aircraft has
been dispatched to monitor gatherings of motorcycle riders at the
Gaston County fairgrounds from just a few hundred feet in the
air--close enough to identify faces--and many more uses, such as the
aerial detection of marijuana fields, are planned." 
The Electronic Battlespace
    "The ACTD [Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration] should
examine a range of technologies including a network of unmanned aerial
vehicles and miniaturized, scatterable public address systems for
satellite rebroadcast in denied areas. It should also consider various
message delivery systems, to include satellite radio and television,
cellular phones and other wireless devices and the Internet."
[emphasis mine] - 65
    "Exploits other transformational EW initiatives, including use of
the E-Space Analysis Center to correlate and fuse all available data
that creates a real time electronic battlespace picture." [emphasis
mine] - 62 
How exactly do you create a real time electronic battlespace picture?
And where exactly is the battlespace? A very similar statement was
made in the Project for a New American Century document Rebuilding
America's Defenses published in September of 2000 (more about this
document here and here.)
    "New classes of sensors - commercial and military; on land, on and
under sea, in the air and in space - will be linked together in dense
networks that can be rapidly configured and reconfigured to provide
future commanders with an unprecedented understanding of the
battlefield." - pg 59 
An article written by Mark Baard from Parallelnormal.com sheds some
light on this subject.
    "Philadelphia, San Francisco, Houston, and Providence, R.I. are
among the cities partnering with private companies and the federal
government to set up public broadband internet access. Providence used
Homeland Security funds to construct a network for police, which may
be made available to the public at a later date..."
    "But even if the cities fail to complete their Wi-Fi projects, the
military will be able to set up wireless networks within hours,
perhaps even faster."
    "The DOD [Department of Defense], which is in the middle of joint
urban war-games with Homeland Security and Canadian, Israeli and other
international forces, is experimenting with Wi-Fi networks it can set
up on the fly."
    "According to a recent DOD announcement for contractors, soldiers
will be able to drop robots, called LANdroids... when they arrive in a
city. The robots will then scurry off to position themselves, becoming
nodes for a wireless communications network. (Click here to download a
PDF of the DOD announcement.)"
    "The Wi-Fi antennae dotting the urban landscape will serve not
only as communications relays, but as transponders that can pinpoint
the exact positions of of individual computers and mobile phones - a
scenario I described in the Boston Globe last year."
    "In other words, where GPS loses site of a device (and its owner),
Wi-Fi will pick up the trail."
    "The antennae will also relay orders to the brain-chipped masses,
members of the British Ministry of Defense and the DOD believe." 
Conclusion
My next article will examine the Pentagon's desire to "fight the net"
as outlined in the Information Operation Roadmap. Also, I will examine
the use of psychological operations or PSYOP and highlight the
complete lack of limits to the use of all these information
operations, be it on domestic American or foreign audiences.

 Ma un riassuntino in italiano, niente?
Naa, č la solita fuffa: prendono un documento del Pentagono a caso, e poi ci 
ricamano sopra con le solite stronzate. Qualunque sia l'argomento 
dell'articolo: l'imperialismo americano, bla, bla..
