What Will It Take to Get Serious About Missile Defense?
By Angelo Codevilla| December 1, 2017


North Korea’s possession of mobile-launched missiles that can deliver nukes anywhere in the United States shows that, nowadays, anybody can make lots of pinpoint-accurate missiles of any range. Since America’s ICBMs, submarines, and bombers are fewer, concentrated in fewer places than ever, even North Korea can carry out the kind of disarming attack that Americans feared the Soviet Union might have mounted in the 1980s. Kim Jong-un is showing the world that the missile defense programs into which the U.S. government has poured some $80 billion in recent years are no barrier to destroying most U.S. strategic forces and holding the American people hostage.

Just read that other thread that our guys are looking at the west coast to put anti-missile stuff there.  Wait, we don't have that?  We are protecting other countries but we have nothing to shoot down missiles aimed at us?  Rats, this country is not safe.  Let's move to a country that we are protecting.
