O'bama rex: NO Nuclear Weapons????

Do you have proof of this? I don't recall this being the case. I know we initially put missiles in the allusions island and in the polar cap back in the 50's.

So you think that we are depending on fifty year old missles to defend us against a missle attack from Russia?

You don't suppose that the system that was installed in the 50's was replaced with something else along the way?

There was no missile defense system 50 years ago. There was an ABM treaty.

Of course there may have been a delusional system defending the allusion islands!:laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Actually my dad was stationed in the allusions just after Korea. He was a radar technician. It later became a part of NORAD in 1958. He said then we had missiles on standby that were able to shoot down anything penetrating our airspace. I am pretty sure he said Nike's is what they had. The problem was the relatively limited range of the missiles meant we needed a bunch every so far apart to do the job.

We also have navy ships that can shoot down in coming missiles as they cross the pond.

With our current missile technology we were able to close down a lot of the defense silos. Those of course are all secret so you never hear them spoke about. However, most of them are in the polar cap since the theory was Russia would fire over the north pole if they were to attack.

We may have had missiles that would shoot down airplanes bit not ICBM's.

The anti Ballistic missiles we have now are the result of Reagan's SDI. One of the systems that obama wants to cancel is a laser system that will destroy a missile shortly after it is fired. The missile systems on ship and Alaska basically are bullets that hit the incoming missiles. I suspect some of these are in Israel also.
