Is the US Ready?

That Washinton Times says that, yes, our officials believe that the US can handle a missile attack.

“The nation has a very, very credible ballistic-missile defense capability. Our ground-based interceptors in Alaska and California, I’m very comfortable, give me a capability that if we really are threatened by a long-range ICBM that I’ve got high confidence that I could interdict that flight before it caused huge damage to any U.S. territory,” said Air Force Gen. Victor E. “Gene” Renuart, Northcom commander.

Will North Korea test a long range missile? We’ll find out tomorrow, let’s hope that they don’t and if they do that it fails.
