The Aegis NMD approach is NOT the Clinton plan. Clinton was expressly limiting the NMD site to one installation to conform to the old ABM Treaty which he venerated as Holy Writ. His schills that he appointed to the DOD and at State (e.g., Strobe Talbott) were consciously and expressly sabotaging the SM-3 development so that it would not be a realistic strategic missile interceptor...slowing it down, making it smaller, shorter range. All of these policy-driven acts of sabotage have had to be 'undone'. You should know this, since you purport to be in the field.

Any way, if all the 'stops' were pulled out on the Aegis NMD deployment (as I advocate), we would already have this thing deployed...not just being tested.

The specter of GWB shamefully echoing BeelzaBubba's "Three No's" performance for his Chinese puppet-masters should be burning in your brain.

The flaws in overall US geopolitical strategy which were set in place in 1945, and have festered since, will soon come to a head IMHO. We are in arrogant defiance of both Von Clausewitz and Sun Tzu. Like a gambler on a Las Vegas roll, we've been both incredibly lucky since '45, and, have actually been played bigtime, leading us slowly but surely into the present box canyon. Our gambler's luck has led us to incorrectly endorse the validity of the theories imbued in the UN and globalist economics which are the key assumptions behind many of our initiatives. The questioning which should have occured if not in 1948, then in the early 1950s, based on what the Korean War told us, was never allowed to fully develop. We'll see, indeed, we'll see!
