Abstract:
The debate over missile defense has shifted from whether missile defense should be pursued as a matter of principle to whether deploying such a defense will be effective in practice. Victory in the debate over the principle of fielding a missile defense must be followed by victory in the debate over fielding a truly effective defense for the American people.
