Great news! With North Korea now using the Clinton light water nuclear reactors to make more nuclear bombs - Bush hurried on this. (In light of N. Korea's statements last week, I now wonder if any delusional Democrats will still be voicing their opposition!)

Mr. Bush is expected to announce the decision today, with Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld and other defense officials then describing the details of the deployment plan.

The decision comes a year after the United States withdrew from the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty to allow more effective research and development of a system to shoot down long-range and short-range missiles. It also fulfills a presidential campaign promise Mr. Bush made in May 2000.

Thank, my FRiend !! Good article.

From post 1: The system will provide the United States with a limited defense against long-range missile threats, primarily those posed by rogue states. Recent missile tests and U.S. intelligence reports have pinpointed North Korea, Iran and Iraq as the likeliest nations to pose such a threat.

Don't forget, Rumsfield, that it was your advisor committees who provided the money and missle technology to those same rogue states posing a threat to the U.S. And of course, the U.S. has a limited defense. We gave our missle techology away to those rogue states. As much as I am suspicious about Col. Lunev's position in exposing what the enemy states have against us, we have much to blame for dealing with them in the first place.
