Korea is not your problem. It is you WANT for an enemy that is the problem.

Considering the consistent failures of tests of the 'missle shield',
this is probably a prudent move. No telling where some 'anti-missle'
will land, or what airliner it'll decide to take out. The thing would
probably do more damage when it goes out of control than some imaginary
korean nuke would ever do.

Not withdraw, just not actively join in, other than through NORAD.
Apparently it will make no practical difference in any case.

P.M. Martin currently heads a "minority government", meaning that he
has to be unusually sensitive to the wishes of the electorate. His
government would likely have fallen had he tried to ram such an
unpopular program through. Public opposition to participation is 3 to
2 in English Canada and 3 to 1 in Quebec. Democracy can be like that.

Kinetic impact is a silly way to kill an incoming nuke. The sensible
thing to do is pop up a clean megaton-level warhead of our own.
Anywhere within 50 miles would do, there's much less problem about
decoys (just vaporize everything) and there's absolutely no problem
about where it might land.

John
Yet another reason for the canucks to freak out about this whole thing.
An airburst would take out every computer, TV, radio, and telephone
within 100 miles, while letting the stupid V2 the koreans would probably
be using fly through to SF unscathed.

Actually, the best (only good?) idea to come out of star wars was
"brilliant pebbles", which are impact devices, thousands of them, which
swarm at anything they are aimed at. They are small enough to burn up
before they hit the ground. It was squashed by the Clinton gang in 93,
but was the frontrunner for missle defense under GHWB. Sure was nice not
to have anybody major gunning for us.

the warhead was left intact to impact near the original target.

I humbly request that you stand in the middle of a street and don't move
when a car comes toward you.

If you suggest that you would never do this unless forced to do so, then I
will accuse you of belligerence because you are requiring me to use force.

Spehro,
Glad someone pointed out that it was not a withdrawal from
any existing agreement, just a decision to not join the new one.
So much for knowledgeable comments.
Now if we could only get that big irregularly shaped
bulls-eye below the 49th to move we could be threat free and not
need any defense except for those instances we take upon
ourselves willingly.

Stick to what you're good at.

The US would get pretty hot under the collar if anybody fired missiles
over their territory, whether or not it was 'in defence'.

Such defence is more correctly conducted under current NORAD.

That has been the intended defense tactic since 1950, though you seem

confused.

I don't think this method works well on ICBMs, for a number of
reasons.

You seem to have confused discussion with insulting.

The damage depends on the radius; ionization, vaporization, pulse
heating, radiation detonation of onboard explosives, seu
damage/scrambling of electronics, emp, stuff like that. It has a lot
higher probability of kill than impact.

I don't think this method works well on ICBMs, for a number of
reasons.
It allows miles-range kills (instead of meters-away misses) and helps
the decoy situation immensely. The whole point of ABMs is to sustain
deterrance.

Nah, to the extent they may work, they are a scheme to gain
first-strike capability over other countries, and thus make it easier
to threaten them with a first use of nuclear weapons or subject them
to conventional attack.

Submarines provide guaranteed survivable and robust response to an
enemy first strike, so the ABMs are most certainly not required for
that.

About 17% of US crude oil imports (biggest supplier).

NAFTA was a lousy deal for Canada in that it ceded much sovereignty
over energy resources and investment review-- re-negotiating it is a
*good* idea (only 6 months notice required). Also to deal with
"issues" where the agreement is being systematically violated over a
period of years on behalf of US special interests such as softwood
lumber. What's the point of an agreement if the other side ignores it
at will while insisting on the terms beneficial to themselves?
