Ballistic missiles can't be much of a threat from North Korea or Iran when we have thousands of them, literally plus many more thousands which are off line but could be on-line in short order.

What *state* is going to risk their complete annihilation?

Only states have the ability to develop and test let alone attack using ballistic missiles. This entire ABM program is a big boondoggle for Boeing et al.

This fear thing is going too far. Well, fear is how its sold to the public...
