I was sort of hoping we'd use this occasion for some live tests of our
anti-missile laser and missile systems. It would be nice to have some
free targets for a change.

Sure, but so embarrassing when it doesn't work!


Not as embarrassing as when they fail in a real crisis because they never
conducted a fully operational test.

In what crises would they work? If they succeeded in sending even one
to the US, their entire country would be leveled within minutes. What
advantage is that to them?
