Wouldn’t it be easier to shoot them while they are still meteors?
What good does it do to shoot them once they have landed?

They are easier to hit on the ground.

Preferably while they’re meteoroids.

They probably meant asteroids. Second, they are only called meteors when they're passing through the atmosphere ionizing it and creating light. While they're still out in space they're called meteoroids (like asteroid). In any case, the Russians are, once again, likely full of it, that that is the reason they want to 'tweak' the missiles.

There is one meteorite in Washington, DC; another in New York City, etc.

Wouldn't it be easier to shoot them while they are still meteors? I don't know about easier. I think it's a lot easier to shoot a meteorite than a meteor, but better to shoot it while it's still a meteor. Or not. Maybe figure out where it's going to land before shooting it at all, he, he.
