Good. That’s how the balance of power is supposed to work. I thought I read somewhere that they’re going to cut some missile defense sites in Alaska.

Thats under review

Bill Would Reverse Missile Defense Cutbacks in Alaska

New legislation might turn around the Obama administration’s efforts to scale back a missile defense project in Alaska, the Anchorage Daily News reported Saturday (see GSN, June 17).

The U.S. Defense Department, looking to cut $1.2 billion in the missile defense budget, has decided against deploying another 14 missile interceptors at Fort Greely, Alaska. It would instead use the weapons for testing or as backups for the 30 interceptors set for fielding in Alaska and California.
