The astonishing National Academy of Sciences missile defense report

The astonishing National Academy of Sciences missile defense report

Just a few weeks ago, on September 11, the National Academy of Sciences issued a report titled "Making Sense of Ballistic Missile Defense: an Assessment of Concepts and Systems for US Boost Phase Missile Defense in Comparison to Other Alternatives." It is an astonishing document, given that it purports to be the product of a respectable scientific institution. It contains numerous flawed assumptions, analytical oversights, and internal inconsistencies.http://www.thebulletin.org/web-edition/op-eds/the-astonishing-national-academy-of-sciences-missile-defense-report-0
