Reviewing the system:

We saw this graphic in the news today, and a number of thoughts occurred to us:

• So, Iraq is going to be launching missiles with ranges of 5,000 miles? Who knew? (item 1)
  
  
• Looks grim if you live in Europe.
  
  
• That radar in Greenland isn't going to detect China-to-California missiles (item 3). What, if anything, is being done on that front?
  
  
• It seems you need a satellite (item 8) to let you know if a nuclear bomb has leveled an American city.
