I can't see how the N Korean missile escapade, a complete and total farce, embarrassment and failure,could possibly be used as an argument for the development of space based weapons. Wait... I am not against space based weapons in fact the reverse...you do what you have to do to defend yourselves but you have to maintain some 'credibility'.Lets face reality here the North Koreans are no threat ..it would take 30 years for them to catch up with current USA space capability and thats only if the Chinese allow it and they won't. China's enjoying a real economic boom and want it desperatly to continue and would soon slap N Korea down.
I suspect there may be other reasons for developing space based weapons
