I think either USA, Russia, China could pretty much turn this planet into a dead rock pretty quick.

They don't have any ICBMs
And it would be 8700 kilometers

If the Chinese can put satellites into orbit, they can build an ICBM.

If the Chinese launch an ICBM, they are sealing their own coffin.

Compare the quantity of weapons available to each side.

The Chinese could hit one of our cities.

But then we'd hit ALL of theirs.

This is the reason why the GWB wants an ABM system in place.  He sees the Chinese as an eventual threat while Clinton went to bed with them.

The limited number of warheads and missles makes an ABM system more then reasonable.

China is the single most danerous state threat to us.  We will be going to nuclear war with China over Taiwan during the next 100 years or less.

1996 An Office of Naval Intelligence document, "Worldwide Challenges to Naval Strike Warfare" reported that "US technology has been acquired [by China] through Israel in the form of the Lavi fighter and possibly SAM [surface-to-air] missile technology." Jane's Defense Weekly (2/28/96) noted that "until now, the intelligence community has not openly confirmed the transfer of US technology [via Israel] to China." The report noted that this "represents a dramatic step forward for Chinese military aviation." (Flight International, 3/13/96)
