The Case for Comprehensive Missile Defense in Asia
Long piece from the Heritage Foundation about establishing an East-Asia missile shield that would cover South Korea and Japan. Very timely given the provocations from Kimmie and Sonny-Boy. This is one of the first good proposals I've seen for a 21st century deterrence of aggression in East Asia.
What I really like about this is that we could remove most of our ground troops from Korea, and focus on what we do best with a missile shield plus some air assets and a continuing naval presence.
Now just expand it a touch to cover Taiwan... |
