I agree with most of your message. But you are missing it totally by putting China a great nation of 1 billion people in with a bunch of terrorists states. To cite the Chinese threat of (not yet built) 150 nuclear missiles aimed at the US as terrorist. Then we are the biggest terrorists in the world for we have 1000 nuclear missiles aimed at China. And now we are going to build a useless shield which further threatens China. Are they supposed to leave their 1 billion unprotected so the US can run roughshod over them? Sometimes it is so amusing when folks in the US think we are all good and the rest of the world should cow tow. If we can maintain 2300 massively destructive nuclear weapons to protect 300 million, why shouldn't the Chinese be allowed to build a 150 to protect themselves. If they are not our enemy who is, and why are they, and if we want peace, why aren't we negotiating eliminating weapons instead of building the useless shield. You see some of our leaders need China to be the enemy so we can justify a massively bloated defense industry. If they were our friends we wouldn't be able to justify a defense budget of 150b let alone increase the current 330 billion pork barrel. Peace is a two way street, and if we want it, we need to act like it. The current admin has been too busy sabre rattling for any country to think we want peace.
