The inanity of antimissile technology for airliners continues. It reminds me of nuclear deterrence. The only logical hope is that by having something, it will deter/persuade terrorists to pick a different target.
This approach was costly then and it is even more costly now. As a society, we continue to struggle with an understanding of risk management, cost/benefit analysis, etc., when it comes to security.
Unless this system is just as effective against rocket-propelled anything's (grenades for example), this is a complete waste of taxpayer revenue.
Why not spend $200M on making sure that FBI agents have email and others tools they need so they can track down terrorists before they have a target in their sights?
