Putting a defensive line in Alaska gives them some time to kick in a secondary measure if their defense sheild fails. The secondary measure is probably a big red button that makes Pyongyang glow in the dark. |

] I guess the Terrorist (TM) will be attacking Alaska soon. What a fucking joke. Star Wars is back on the table again. *sigh* After nearly everyone said it wouldn't work. And now bozo is going to start by deploying 10 interceptor missiles of questionable capabilities to intercept what? The only people with missiles that can reach us and do any damage are China and Russia and they've got no interest. Oh yeah, there's the boogeyman North Korea who, of course, is help bent on shooting nukes at us because, of course, the end net result is the total annihilation of their own country. What a joke! |
