The Problems and Prospects of the New Alaska Missile Interceptor Site
Mon, September 20th, 2004
Washington, D.C.
IMGXYZ359IMGZYX For the first time in American history, a president will deploy a major weapon system without knowing whether it works. On or about October 1, the administration is expected to declare the operational deployment of five missile interceptors at Fort Greely, Alaska. Will this be the start of a new era or President Bush’s folly? Two of the best experts in the nation discuss what this deployment will contribute to America’s national security.
