Does This Include Freighters?

The One is looking to make a deal with the Russians.
WASHINGTON — President Obama sent a secret letter to Russia’s president last month suggesting that he would back off deploying a new missile defense system in Eastern Europe if Moscow would help stop Iran from developing long-range weapons, American officials said Monday.
If the payload is a nuclear warhead, just what does a long-range weapon look like?

Couldn't this be a long-range weapon?

Yes, and since the missile defense shield couldn't do much about it, that is why some argued it wasn't a good use of money in the first place.

And if that position is valid, then Kevlar vests waste police resources.

Government waste. It's everywhere, isn't it?

Kelly, after the Soviet Union collapsed, their military and policial leaders admitted that it was SDI that convinced them they couldn't compete with us.

I guess missile defense was good for something. So might be pre-emptively eliminating a regime bent on Armageddon.

The answer: a resounding yes!

I've seen ship-carrying-weapon scenarios in two video games. If they can think of it, some nut in the real world can.
