He used the word if a lot more than you do. What I am worried about and I believe mosy conservatives think the same is that China and Russia will play us. Our president is so arrogane and so in need of adulation that it is a great concern that he will forget about the old Reagan adage "trust but verify". I am very pessimistic about anyone being able to stop Iran and their march towards nuclear weapons. With Pakistan getting set to implode and our President dissing their leadership publicly we better start worrying about Iran getting help from Pakistan in accelerating the process. If that happens than we will for sure need a missle defense system in Europe.

We will see. I am a good deal more confident that you are. We have different perspectives. I feel like Bush failed miserably on all of the accounts and that Obama will have arrived just in time. Hopefully, it is not too late in Iran.

Pakistan will be a huge first test. The whole world is watching.

I support a missile defense system, but I am much more worried about a nuclear bomb arriving at a US port in a shipping crate.
