...Bush Administration coddled the European allies in the days leading up to last week's speech, sharing its content and having Bush phone leaders with sneak previews. The allies appreciated the vagueness of the speech because it hinted that they may be able to influence the shield's final shape. The key to Europe's opposition is the lack of an ABM Treaty successor. If the ABM pact collapses, it must be replaced "only by better ones or more effective ones," German Foreign Minister Joschka Fischer said after Bush's speech. "We don't want there...
...your father just starved 2 million people--what are you going to do now? Sadly, he's not going to Disneyland. A man claiming to be Kim Jong Nam, son of the certainly weird, purportedly evil North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il, was deported from Japan after trying to sneak into the country with two women and a four-year-old boy he wanted to take to Tokyo Disneyland.

But five policemen on mountain bikes, plus three on video surveillance, are able to handle...
...nuclear weapons, a rogue state could launch an attack and might just be crazy enough to accept the horrible consequences. Bush’s arguments on those grounds, however, fall flat. Most terrorists or rogue states lack the missile capacity to attack the United States and would most likely sneak nuclear, chemical or biological weapons into the U.S. through other means—say, a suitcase in a commercial plane. It is unlikely that a nation such as Iraq, Iran or North Korea would develop and launch a ballistic missile when much less-challenging and easier-to-conceal methods...
