Missile Defense

Russian military leaders have expressed concern about US plans for a national missile defense system. Will defense technology be limited by possibilities for a strategic imbalance? Is this just SDI all over again?

ASSOCIATIONS BETWEEN "NAZI" AND "NAZI+BUSH" ON THIS THREAD

In Virginia, Young Conservatives Learn How to Develop and Use Their Political Voices by BLAINE HARDEN http://www.nytimes.com/2001/06/11/politics/11CONS.html linked to md4771 . . .

I'd say yes -- the association was much closer, and not one of deference to probability of success, but active collaboration and large scale profiting from financing the Nazis.

It seems to me that the staffs of organizations with an interest, including NATO allies, Russian staffs, and staffs of the mainstream political parties, both Republican and Democratic ought to spend time to look at this. . . . . Is this one of those things that gets less serious as it is considered, or more serious ?

I haven't seen the extenuating circumstances, or anything like a fully worked up case, but in terms of what I've seen, the potential seriousness of the matter far, far transcends the serious of "Monicagate" and "Whitewater" combined...

MD5534 rshowalter 6/20/01 11:40am If you search almarst and earlier, almarstel_20001 , you'll see that these issues concern him, too. These issues are important to consider if we are to make peace.
