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?

I've been honored to have had the chance to post on this thread - and have been especially honored that someone who seems to have high connections to the Bush administration (or who works hard to simulate them) - has given the thread the time and attention that gisterme has.

Between March 2001 and March 1, 2002, gisteme posted about 750 times, and since March 1, 2002 he's posted about 520 more times.
