Ishiba, known as a hawkish defense expert, also said Tokyo should develop a missile defense system with the United States since it lacks the capability to defend itself from missile attacks from North Korea. "To develop and deploy [a missile defense system] is one of the major options. Our nation should pursue this," he said.

During his first term, President Reagan (derided by his leftist traitor critics as "President Ray-gun") first advocated that a missile defense capability be developed. The leftist, anti-American Democrats fought against this tooth and nail for almost two decades, doing everything they possibly could to obstruct, delay, and defeat this initiative. "It would be a threat to world peace," They claimed.

Well, we are now finding out that not having even a minimal capability to shoot down a single missile launched by Madman is the REAL treat to world peace.

We had almost twenty years. . . twenty years wasted by TRAITORS in the media and the left wing of the congress. Now, we are looking at the very real possibility that multiple cities in Japan and the US could be destroyed, and millions of Americans and Japanese killed or horribly injured, and there is NOTHING we can do to stop it.
