Missile Defense

Technology has always found its greatest consumer in a nation's war and defense efforts. Since the last attempts at a "Star Wars" defense system, has technology changed considerably enough to make the latest Missile Defense initiatives more successful? Can such an application of science be successful? Is a militarized space inevitable, necessary or impossible?

Good summary:

White House Tries to Defend Uranium Claim By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Filed at 1:06 p.m. ET http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/national/AP-Defending-Bush.html

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The White House defense of President Bush's now-disavowed claim that Iraq was seeking uranium in Africa has evolved over the last two weeks: blame others, stonewall, bury questions in irrelevant information and, above all, hope it will go away.

So far, none has worked.
