MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction) prevented the Soviets from trying this, but I don't think it will deter the Mad Mullahs of Iran.

I agree. You can't use a MAD concept on people who want to go to paradise.

It's time for the brains in the DOD to think of another way to stop the mullahs short of a reactive nuclear strike against Iran. If they can't come up with anything then all that's left is to make that piece of desert radioactive when they launch their "one" missile.

That would really tick off the liberal Dems, but this country would be safe.

Ronald Raygun's Star Wars defense system begins to sound a bit less crazy, does it not.

What Ballistic Missile Defenses(BMDs) we will have by the time the Mullahs get this thing, if they ever do, should be sufficient to stop a small attack such as could be launched by Iraq. The now being built laser on a 747 would be quite handy for shooting down this sort of missile during the launch phase.
