Its not a matter of understanding a solution. There was not an acceptable solution at the time star wars was proposed. Apparently there is not one now.

If you mean there was no soultion then and is none now against a maasive attack combined with a massive use of decoys and countermeasures then you are right, but against a smaller less capable attacker the technology either exists or is close to existing to make such a defense. Against a massive attack I submit that it is possible to develop a defense esp. if given more economic and technological resources then the attacker. You seem to be assumeing that a it is a forgone conclution that a defense will not work now or any time in the next decade or two. If that is your assumption then I think you are wrong.
