Let me agree with you first of all that these are all very serious issues. For me, the matter of proliferation of weapons of potentially mass destruction, as difficult as it is to defend against, is most serious in the Middle East, and that's why the Iranian negotiations are so crucial. We have to make them succeed. The alternative is going to be probably some kind of use of force, which will not, I think, be any kind of permanent solution and will be very difficult, especially in the context of other things on the ground taking place there at this point.
Why do I say proliferation is so problematic there? If the Iranians acquire these weapons of mass destruction, there will be a kind of effect that will spread and other governments in the area beyond Israel—Israel already has those weapons—will be acquiring the weapons.
The problem there is that these are small urban populations. The time required to attack is very short, and there is a history of surprise attack in the area. This combination is a recipe for very serious problems. Therefore, to the extent that the defensive technologies are going to be able to help us in this area, we have to exploit them, but I think we also have to rely seriously on the success of negotiations at this point.
