Even the right wing hawks like Adelman are upset with Bush and Rummy et al. Bush manages to piss off just about everyone. As a matter of fact we could even preempt their efforts before launch if they became so insane with the use of one of those B1s and a well placed "smart" weapon that we have tested? so many times and have the rest of the world cheering. The neat part of rogue nations such as Libya or terrorists, is they have an attitude...go ahead make me a martyr. It may be insane; but sane is not a requirement. If sanity were to prevail, then it's let's go for the suitcase bomb. One martyr, one bomb, the glory of [insert name of god]. However, we cannot yet stop a car from being parked in the driveway of the White House with a suspected bomb but not too worry....blow $100 million per test on a As someone previously offered on the thread, once we spend $nnB on BMD, then we'll worry about the car parked in the driveway. Impeach the idiot! Disagree. Keep him in for full term. He'll destroy the conservative movement before he's done. Keeping him in office is a small price to pay. [Especially, since the Dem Senate now controls judicial appointments] jttmab

There was a story I heard yesterday on CNN-Europe re:BMD that I can't find in print anywhere...the closest I've found is this AP Wire: newsday.com Extract... Reacting to the Saturday night test, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Yakovenko said it contributes to a situation "which threatens all international treaties in the sphere of nuclear disarmament and nonproliferation which are based on the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty." The statement reflected what appears to be a growing uneasiness that President George W. Bush's defense and security team might have decided to build a missile-defense system and abandon the 1972 treaty. I've heard the German Chancellor as well refer to other treaties beyond the ABM treaty.. The additional item in the CNN-Europe story was that Putin indicated that if the US withdrew from the ABM treaty, the Russians would consider there obligations to reduce their nuclear weapons to be void. Perhaps no one cares. But Putin has moved a stack of chips to the play line of the ABM treaty poker game. Have you seen the Putin assertion in print? jttmab
