    Missile Defense

Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a nation's war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a "Star Wars" defense system, has technology changed considerably enough to make the latest Missile Defense initiatives more successful? Can such an application of science be successful? Is a militarized space inevitable, necessary or impossible?

Read Debates, a new Web-only feature culled from Readers' Opinions, published every Thursday.

Can we do a better job of finding truth? YES. Click "rshow55" for some things Lchic and I have done and worked for on this thread.

The issue of Serbia, and what went wrong there, is an enormous issue for Almarst.

Whatever generalizations people wish to make with respect to the Iraq case might well be crosschecked with the Kosovo case.

We're a long way from perfection - but we have to be clearer, and do better, than we're doing.

International law as an operational concept, with workable enforcement, is in disarray now if it can be said to exist. It has to be negotiated into being.

With rules that people can understand, and can work.

When things are complicated enough - shared "facts" that are really facts are crucial.

Almarst , this is a hard time for many people - but many people are paying attention, and maybe we can find ways to do better in the future than in the past.

"What can we do now?"

For the sake of the future of this nation and the World, we need to pray for as quick and as less painfull DEFEAT as we will be able to master. Before the trully monsterous future become reality.

This is the stark choice the American foreign policy brought us all to face.

Those who don't believe the History and God - feel free to go agead and disregard.
