re:The first one, China goes into economic depression, and starts a war to maintain power. OK so China goes into a depression and somehow launching a missile against the US gets them out of econimic trouble....like wouldn't the US would turn them into bunch of burning cinders first? How would burning cinders maintain power???? Give us a break... re: rogue countries.....those who would launch against us know that massive retaliation would follow within the hour...it wouldn't take 3 months to figure out where a missile came from. Those people may be evil but they're not stupid...You don't see bin Laden exposing himself to danger do you? Or Saddam either? Massive retaliation is what has kept the super powers at bay since WWII and it's even more effective now. And why would a rogue nation spend limited resources developing or buying expensive missle technology when a nuke can be smuggled into the country so easily, eg on a container ship or maybe nothing more than a tramp steamer. Would be tough to trace and would devestate the port city...
