The multibillion-dollar U.S. ballistic missile shield due to

Which only goes to show you the quality of "scientists" writing the
report.

The so-called "Union of Concerned Scientists " has been politically opposed
to the missile shield since day one. It's no surprise that they would come
out with a report like this.

I wonder, if they're so 'concerned', did they also provide any technical
solutions to the problems they supposedly found, or did they take the
typical defeatist "It's impossible and will never work so just give up and
never try again" attitude that most opponents of the missile shield take?
