#1 If warranted this is a good thing. My fear is that with the current CinC warrented has a whole new definition and those PC requirements might be the problem......one way or the other.

#4 This story has been developing for YEARS! I don't think it is political, but much worse - real. Scary. I suspect that since the perceived threat essentially went away after the collapse of the USSR the AF stopped taking this duty seriously, just like the rest of us. BUT YOU CAN"T blow off that duty, it is critical even though it should never have to be exercised. Very disappointing it has come to this, but it has to be fixed.
