You must be high grin grin grin grin
US no tell you say the defense system will stop a nuclear strike grin grin grin
It is a form of counter-measure against an imminent nuclear attack.
Missile defense is a system, weapon, or technology involved in the detection, tracking, interception, and destruction of attacking missiles. Originally conceived as a defence against
nuclear-armed intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs), its application has broadened to include shorter-ranged non-nuclear tactical and theater missiles.

Rants.., empty rants... In less that 10 minutes North Korea can flatten Japan, South Korea and most of Americas military bases in Asia... In less than 30 minutes NKs ICBMs armed with nuclear warhead will be at Americas borders and the only thing stopping Armageddon at that point will be the fledgling "patriot missiles" that failed Israel against Saddams SCUDS... Americas military abilities as it regards North Korea is highly reduced at this point and the only hope for the demilitarization/denuclearization of the Korean peninsular is the assassination of the "fat boy" himself.., the infant-terrible who seem to be a combination of his grand father and father rolled into one in terms of his brutal nationalistic credentials...
Have you ever heard of Missile Defence Systems?

In ya dreams. Even Israel is ahead of US. grin
what's with this crap going on about Israel being the best in nuclear arms... Let's be sincere, Uncle Sam's nuclear arsenal is larger and far more sophisticated than the nuclear armoury of the entire middle east.

Foreign AffairsRe: 3,000-year-old Statue Of Pharaoh Ramses II Found Buried In Cairo Slum(Photos). by UltraSphinx(m): 5:08am On Mar 16, 2017
Cutehector:
I am thinking its Ramses
Thutmose (Thotmes) II (1493 or 1492 to 1479 BC). Alfred Edersheim proposes in his "Old Testament Bible History" [10] that Thutmose II is best qualified to be the pharaoh of Exodus based on the fact that he had a brief, prosperous reign and then a sudden collapse with no son to succeed him. His widow
Hatshepsut then became first Regent (for Thutmose III ) then Pharaoh in her own right. Edersheim states that Thutmose II is the only Pharaoh's mummy to display cysts, possible evidence of plagues which spread through the Egyptian and Hittite Empires at that time.

Ramesses II (c. 1279-1213 BC): Also known as Ramesses the Great, he is the most commonly imagined figure in popular culture (most widely via the 1956 film The Ten Commandments ), being one of the most long standing rulers at the height of Egyptian power, but there is no documentary or archaeological evidence that he chased any slaves fleeing Egypt. Ramesses II's late 13th century BC
stela in Beth Shan mentions two conquered peoples who came to "make obeisance to him" in his city of Raameses or Pi-Ramesses but mentions neither the building of the city nor, as some have written, the Israelites or Hapiru.[13] Additionally, the historical Pithom was built in the 7th century BC, during the Saite period.

PoliticsBe Patient With My Government - Buhari Begs ASUU by UltraSphinx(op): 8:54pm On Dec 04, 2016
President Muhammadu Buhari, has appealed to the Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, for understanding, stressing that his administration is determined to meet their needs.

Buhari made the appeal during the convocation ceremony of the Federal University of Technology, Owerri, Imo state.

The President, who was represented by the Minister of State for Education, Prof Anthony Anwuka, urged ASUU to appreciate the current economic challenges that has financially constrained the Federal Government from meeting its demands.

Buhari assured that his administration will not renege on its promise to provide opportunities and avenues so that youths can develop their skills and creative ingenuity.

He said, “As partners in progress, I plead for understanding and cooperation as the government is committed to addressing the various issues being canvassed by the Union, as we strive to right the wrongs of the past.

“The fear is further amplified with the rising unemployment coupled with the recent economic recession that has befallen our beloved country. Periods like this are opportunities for geniuses to emerge.”

InvestmentRe: What Nigerians Don't Know About The MMM Scheme by UltraSphinx(op): 3:39pm On Nov 11, 2016
An important factor in the scheme's success was word of mouth , but most of the company's success came from its extremely aggressive ad campaign, which appealed to the general public by using "ordinary" characters that viewers could identify with. The most famous of them, a "folk hero" of early 1994, was Lyonya Golubkov . Another notable marketing effort was a giveaway of free
Metro trips to all Moscow citizens on a particular day. MMM also was one of the first well-known companies in Russia with a logotype and slogans ("Flying from shadow to the light" and others).
On July 22, 1994, the police closed the offices of MMM for tax evasion. For a few days the company attempted to continue the scheme, but soon ceased operations. At that point, Invest-Consulting, one of the company's subsidiaries, owed more than 50 billion rubles in taxes (USD 26 million), and MMM itself owed between 100 billion and 3 trillion rubles to the investors (from USD 50 million to USD 1.5 billion). In the aftermath at least 50 investors, having lost all of their money, committed suicide. Mavrodi was found and arrested in 2003. While in custody, Mavrodi was given until January 31, 2006 to read the documents in his fraud case against him (The criminal case consisted of 650 volumes, each 250-270 pages long). [citation needed] At the end of April 2007, Mavrodi was convicted of fraud, and given a sentence of four and a half years. Since he had already spent over four years in custody, he was released less than a month later, on May 22, 2007. [ citation needed] He later went on to creating yet another pyramid scheme called MMM-2011 .
The MMM scandal led to increased regulation of the Russian stock market, but the legacy of the fraud led many to become extremely suspicious of any
joint stock companies .
In 2015 MMM began operating in South Africa with the same business model as MMM-2011, claiming a "30% per month" return through a "social financial network". [3] The group was identified as a possible pyramid scheme by the National Consumer Commission and accounts of clients were later frozen by Capitec Bank . [4] In response to mounting criticism and official investigations by state authorities in 2016 supporters of the South African MMM scheme staged a protest march in Johannesburg. [5]
In 2016, MMM launched a website targeting the Nigerian audience. [6]
In January 2016 the Chinese government banned MMM on the grounds that it is a pyramid scheme, (Ponzi scheme), and it is not registered in the country (and as a fraudulent scheme cannot be registered).
