Europeans Want Missile Defense Too

For all the criticism around the world (mainly from the Left) about the U.S.'s desire to implement a missile defense program, the European public is still in favor of deploying a system there to protect them.

Some 71 percent of Europeans favor the deployment of a NATO missile defense capability able to protect the continent from attack by missiles bearing weapons of mass destruction, according to a poll that was jointly sponsored by the George C. Marshall Center for Security Studies and Missile Defense Advocacy Alliance, the two organizations announced in Rome last week. By contrast, only 16 percent think that NATO should not have this capability.

When push comes to shove, they want us on that wall....they need us on that wall...
