Also, if capitalism is supposed to lead to peace, it sure hasn't worked over the last 300 years since the Americans, those bastions of capitalism (greed), came on the scene. It sure hasn't led to peace with their interference in other countries' affairs throught the CIA over the last 50 years. In fact, fragile democracies were and are being ruined by the CIA.
Any thinking person can see that no terrorist threat (nuclear or otherwise) is going to subverted by a missile defense shield because such an attack simply will not be launched in a manner that will be protected by such. On the other hand, even talk of such a shield is causing the Russians and Chinese to pursue programs for weapons in space, thus exacerbating the cold war that is supposedly over but not really (we're just pretending about that). As well, even if the Americans don't actually put weapons in space, the idea is clearly that America will be protected and thus allow them to freely threaten anyone else if they don't do as they are told.
Your comments are clearly short-sighted and those of a person who is uninformed. You should understand that being informed does not mean reading your local paper, most of which have a clear right-wing bias as they are owned by corporations. What this means it that you actually have to go outside of these sources and read books to be properly informed.
