> US Asks Japan For Half A Billion Dollars For Missile Defense

24 June 2005, 19:08

Right now, the only way the US can respond to a nuclear attack is to use nukes itself. US security is based upon a solemn promise to nuke any country that nukes the US. MAD.

Anti-missile systems offer the hope of shooting down a nuke before it can kill anyone. This is obviously morally superior to responding to nukes with nukes.

Any comment?
