Perhaps, but it is rather idiotic to spend money on that when the most likely use of a nuclear weapon against the US will be by smuggling in through the ports or across the border.
It's cheaper just to work with the Russians to eliminate the nukes in the first place and we get relatively cheap MOX out of it.
Bush deserves to be criticized for decades for his failure to do just that.
:lol: since we want to talk about past presidents. You forgot Clinton
Perhaps if we were the Swiss yes. However, the ability to suppress a 2nd strike capacity from a potential target is indeed offensive. The tool that eliminates MAD is offensive in nature. A shield that is designed to destroy an enemy's shield has moved from the defensive use into the offensive.
This is dumb. What you don't understand about BMDO could surpass any battery shield system..... :lol:
