Positive: Sounds like Europe's problem though.

Not a super good positive!

Sounds like a valid reason to launch a preemptive strike. (Blue font).

Sounds like someone is fishing for more defense dollars.

Amazing what the Russians and Chinese can accomplish spending half of what the US does annually - combined...

But we make places like Huntsville great by giving billions to a few big companies that employee a statistically insignificant amount of engineers and others.

Um, not insignificant to the thousands upon thousands who live here... :D

Almost like the Pentagon spreads this sorta deal out over enough congressional districts to leverage politicians on budget decisions.

Funny how that works, ain't it?

If we aren't equipped to deal with it then mainland Europe may as well be armed with sticks and stones for all the good their current weaponry will do.

Who cares? Not our problem. If they'd rather spend their tax dollars on building their version of Utopia than be prepared to defend themselves, screw them.

Bottom may fall out of the cruise industry.

Hey, I'm with you! My statement is actually an indictment on their unwillingness to prepare themselves for just such a catastrophe. Easier to have other nice things when you spend next to nothing on defense. Free child care is a fantastic and useful thing to have - not much good during a missile barrage but it's nice the rest of the time.
