Chicoms: Countries Should Not Develop Missile-Defense Systems

Because it undermines "global strategic stability."

Oh sorry, did we say "countries? We meant other countries, countries that are not the People's Republic of China." Those countries.

Meanwhile we think we'll just go ahead and test ours.

The Pentagon said it had not received prior notification of the test and declined to see any link with arms sales to Taiwan. However it confirmed that the test had taken place and was seeking more information.
"We detected two geographically separated missile launch events with an exo-atmospheric collision also being observed by space-based sensors," said Major Maureen Schumann, a Pentagon spokeswoman.

This likely confuses President Awesomeness as he is under the impression missile-defense is like, no big deal or anything.
