Thank goodness for Russia, China, Iran, and, to a lesser extent, North Korea’s improved missile capabilities! Some argue that it is more effective to persuade someone with words and a gun than without one. Finally, Western powers who are at least two (if not more) generations behind in missile and rocket technology will either wake up or use their nuclear weapons to kill us all. There is at least a potential that the West will crawl back into its hole and sulk for several generations…

I observe that Russia’s focus on missile technology development has paid off, whereas the American focus on stealth technology has shown to be worthless and a clear purposeful Hollywood-style money pit…

We are lucky it has turned out this way.
