You've always gotta look at who benefits. We got something here maybe, but the details are a little unclear. What does anyone else think?
Military Industrial Complex propaganda.
People are waking up to F-22 boondoggles etc.
The MIC needs a new scare to justify big $ projects.
Asteroids/Meteors/Comets fit the bill nicely.
You never know how big the space object is gonna be, so you constantly need to keep building and buying bigger and bigger missiles.

You never know how many space objects might be headed for earth at the same time, so you need to buy more and more of the missiles.
Everything would be fine, except...
Nobody's scared of asteroids.
They never invaded South Korea.
They didn't invade South Vietnam.
They didn't even do 9-11.

So you have to make up a false-flag extinction to make asteroids seem like a threat.
So what do you do?
1) Invent evolution so people believe dinosaurs used to exist.
2) Put out some junk 'science' claiming that an asteroid wiped out dinosaurs.
3) Start putting out fear mongering asteroid related propaganda, like Deep Impact or Armageddon.
4) Also put out 'joint-fear' propaganda, like 'The Andromeda Strain', which makes people scared of space and viruses (get 'em vaccinated too).
5) Start building anti-asteroid missiles.
6) Accuse political opponents and free thinkers of collaborating with asteroids, send them to re-education FEMA camps.
7) Occasionally use HAARP or a high-altitude bomber to drop a giant rock on a city simulating an asteroid collision, to keep people scared.
8) Sterilize 9/10ths of the human population, enslave everyone with microchips.
