A working version of the defense system does not yet exist and a number of tests have resulted in failure, Don't we have a working system in Alaska and aboard ships?

What is wrong with these crazy people? Do these people have a death wish? Are they curious as to what life would be like under Islamofascist rule or something? Are they wanting a taste of "multiculturalism",Islamofascist-style? Do they wonder what it would be like to see people decapitated right before their very eyes? Sick,sick,sick.

Having just returned from an extended European junket, this does not surprise me. They may find a better reception in Hungary, but in general I would be shocked if Europeans were any more receptive to missile protection than the Canadians were. They still are suspicious of America as having imperialist ambitions and feel that terror can be contained with domestic security and internationalist policing.
It would be hard to overstate how differently they view history, terror and WMD than we do.

The problem lies in the fact that Washington is insisting that any base be considered a sovereign US installation on foreign soil.

What do they need the missle defense for--their enemies are already within their borders. They can't launch rockets at their own cities-can they?/sarc

Before everyone gets too worked up about this, keep in mind that it was published in Der Speigel...not exactly a bastion of love for America.

"hundreds of jobs for Europeans"
Sure, that's a fair price for becoming the first target in case of war...
Fortunately looks like someone explained twins that this the whole thing is not a great idea.
