IF YOU HAVE A MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTEM, AN ATTACK IS MORE LIKELY? Lawmaker: Trump’s Golden Dome will end the madness, and that’s not a good thing. “Moulton argued that a missile shield like the Golden Dome would change the decision-making of a potential adversary. If another country’s leaders believe the United States can protect itself from widespread destruction—and therefore remove the motivation for a massive US response—that might be enough for an adversary to pull the trigger on a nuclear attack. Inevitably, at least a handful of nuclear-tipped missiles would make it through the Golden Dome shield in such a scenario, and countless Americans would die, Moulton said.”

We just need to make clear that there will be a massive response nonetheless.
