You were overreacting man; you don’t even get the purpose of missile defense system.
“It is the policy of the United States to deploy as soon as is technologically possible an effective National Missile Defense system capable of defending the territory of the United States against limited ballistic missile attack (whether accidental, unauthorized, or deliberate) with funding subject to the annual authorization of appropriations and the annual appropriation of funds for National Missile Defense.”

“Against LIMITED ballistic missile attack (whether ACCIDENTAL, UNAUTHRLIZED, or DELIBREATE)”

Basically, it is not aimed to country like Russia, china, and other countries with large nuclear capabilities. If those countries start a nuclear war, it won’t be a limited attack. Everyone knows that, and those countries will not be stupid enough to start one.

Where you get those thoughts anyway??
