1.) Nobody that has an ICBM capable of hitting New York would fire it - especially over Canda, eh. 2.) If an ICBM were fired, the odds of the US even having a defense, much less a deployed system ready to protect all major cities, is zero. 3.) An ICBM with a conventional warhead would be complete waste of an ICBM since, relatively, it wouldn't damage much. An ICBM with an NBC warhead would almost certainly be MIRV'd and therefore impossible to stop even if we had a deployed system capable of incerpting ICBMs after re-entry. In short, I think we need to think outside of the box here - the terrorists did and scored 2 out of 3 direct hits against primary targets. First let's secure ports, planes, and immigration. Then we can worry about aliens, comets, and missles. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Find out how CFTicket can increase your company's customer support efficiency by 100% http://www.houseoffusion.com/banners/view.cfm?bannerid=49 Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:5:148674 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/5 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:5 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
