Ashton Carter is the typical Beltway apparatchik -- profiting from the revolving door between the military, heavy industry and academia.
He advised Goldman Sachs on military technology.
He was an actor in the dismantling of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty, signed by Bill Clinton, which allowed a collection of Dr. Strangeloves to go rampant on computer simulated lab tests of nuclear weapons coupled with underground tests in the Nevada desert (plutonium blown up with explosives, for instance).
He was and remains a key actor in the ever evolving "policy" of demonization of Russia.
He advised Bubba Clinton on missile technology -- and how the Empire of Chaos could deploy a missile shield in Alaska while claiming it was not violating the 1972 ABM treaty with Russia.
Clinton violated the ABM treaty; Dubya Bush went one up and LEFT the ABM treaty. A new missile race started -- which, by the way, Russia is winning.
Way back in 1996, he was totally paranoid about both Iraq and Iran non-existent WMDs.
Then, in 2006, he even upstaged the Cheney regime calling for a strike on axis of evil member North Korea if they did a ballistic missile test (they did; no strike).
And here's the icing on the weaponized cake: he advised Obama on the "pivoting to Asia."
Run for cover, everybody.
