What country do you think has the capability to pull off an attack that our present system could not repel?

China, Russia now (not counting UK and France), soon Iran, North Korea, India, Pakistan.


Joe,

With the exception of Russia, the only thing the other countries have is nuclear bomb capability, if that. None of them (including Russia) have the ability to mount a multiple strike attack that would challenge our current missle arsenal and defense system.

So why would we want to spend billions more to make our defense system even more incredible?

Joe,

I don't get it.

Amy terrorist can unload some anthrax and wipe out half the country.

Nuclear missiles are not the problem anymore. Reagan had a bad idea in 1980, and it is much worse with Dufus recycling it in 2000.
