摘要

A certain sort of madness once seemed enough to defend the United States from nuclear attack. "MAD"-Mutu-ally Assured Destruction-operated on the premise that the best defence is a good offence. But the American government worries that MAD-style deterrence will no longer work. Terrorists, for example, might not care about the threat of destruction. And to make matters worse, any nuclear weapons used by terrorists or rogue states may not arrive by ballistic missile. Instead, they are likely to come in a cargo container-ei-ther by ship or on the back of a lorry driven across one of the country's long land borders. So the best defence might rely on intercepting a nuclear weapon at the border, rather than in space.
