Gates To N. Korea: We Can Destroy Missile

(AP)  Defense Secretary Robert Gates is expressing confidence that the United States can shoot down any North Korean missile fired toward America.

Gates told U.S. lawmakers at a hearing Tuesday that the U.S. would have a "high probability of being able to defend ourselves" if the North fired a long-range missile.

He says U.S. missile interceptors "are fully adequate to protect us from the North Korean threat for a number of years."

He says that if the North Korean "threat" should change, the United States could easily expand its missile interceptor force.

North Korea has announced that it tested a nuclear device and is apparently assembling for a long-range missile test.

I don't care what is done, I'd support any war to any lengths, but the powers that be that are ionizing/vaporizing or whatever they are doing to control the very AIR we breathe has to stop. It is fuc8ing idiotic and barbaric and unconstitutional.

Someone forgot to tell the North Koreans that their people can't fight if they're not fed.

An interception base (ABMS) could be built in the Pacific Ocean. There are several prime island groups for missiles. America should leave South Korea. Pyong Yang easily launches missiles, fires rockets, and drops shells into that target area.

The long range missles don't scare me, what scares me is the stuff pointed at Seoul and US bases ON the peninsula...

U.S. missile interceptors "are fully adequate to protect us from the North Korean threat for a number of years."

FYI for at least 8 years when Bush was in the office...
