What are we to make of Barack Obama's attitude towards U.S. missile defenses? His past positions, his actions as president to date and the secret negotiations his administration currently has underway with Russia bespeak an alarming, ideologically driven hostility to the idea of protecting the American people and their allies from ballistic missile-delivered threats.
Given the irrationality of such an attitude in light of the intensifying dangers such threats represent, the Obama attitude might best be described as "anti-missilephobia." Will Congress accommodate or counteract this potentially suicidal disorder?
