What say thou Alaska posters about the Navy's 20 year contract
to conduct war games ? The last post in the thread link has an interview.

This story has not been covered at all by the mainstream media.
Of course some local Alaskan news may be covering it, right ?

Is it an issue that concerns you ? Or not ?
Don't automatically vote, if you don't know about the controversy yet,
please learn about it before voting.

The Cordova Times did a story on it and the ADN reported it too. I think someone has an agenda and is hyping up the danger.

Its a horribly worded poll. Yes i support the war games, but I support letting the Military do "whatever they want". Its as if FOX News posted this.

Did you read the articles or listen to the interview ?
This is going to cause a lot of damage.

The Navy should of course do everything it can to minimize the impact to marine life. But nothing is going to be zero impact. Wind farms are dangerous for eagles:

Should wind farms be banned?

Yes. Eagles are more important and we should be making Tesla towers.

Two of the links you provided are the exact same reading, just with different blogs...

I read the ADN article.

It's damaging to the environment and a complete waste of taxpayer money. I am completely opposed to it.
