I am reminded of the scene form Platoon where a squad is preparing for night ambush: "
It's politics man, it's politics." (Platoon, 1986)
Seriously, this off topic thread has its genesis in the The Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty (ABM Treaty or ABMT) (1972—2002) or the violation of the treaty (as many have alleged) with the first serious work dubbed as "Star Wars."
