As President Obama deploys a missile shield to protect the US from the Korean launch...
guess it was a good idea we had spent the money on it after all.
I disagree. Money spent on warfare would be far better spent on developing infrastructure, foreign aid, and building up economic relations with the rest of the world. Far more lives would be saved and national security would be far better served.
European countries used to war with each other all the time. Now that is unthinkable. Why? Because of economic and social interdependence.

And one other very significant reason: military dependence on the United States. Who carries the weight of NATO?
Besides, how many years of relative peace have their been in Europe, less than 25, depending on whether you count the Balkans or go back to the Berlin Wall)? That's not a lot of years of peace, relative to Europe's history.

1. The cold war is over. NATO is unnecessary.
2. Britain and France have nukes and ICBMs. They are not dependent on the U.S.
3. If the U.S. were to suddenly disappear -- say all them good Jesus-loving Christians were just raptured away -- Europe would not descend into war. It would still be unthinkable that the UK and France were to fight each other.
