Trump wants a 'Golden Dome' capable of defending the entire US: 'Strategically, it doesn't make any sense'

[luiza]

‘Trump has repeatedly insisted the US needs a missile defense program similar to Israel’s Iron Dome, but the systems are orders of magnitude apart. In practical terms, the comparison is less apples to oranges, and more apples to aircraft carriers.

Israel’s Iron Dome missile defense system selectively protects populated areas from short-range threats in a country the size of New Jersey; Trump wants a space-based missile defense system capable of defending the entire United States from advanced ballistic and hypersonic missiles.

For one thing, “Israel is tiny,” the source familiar with ongoing internal discussions about the Golden Dome project said. “So, it is 100% feasible to blanket Israel in things like radars and a combination of mobile and fixed interceptors.”

More childish idiocy from Trump.

You are so Gullible , Celia .
You fall for every deliberate Deflection .

Trumpfy knows Reagan's Iron Dome was a load of nonsense .
As is Israels , Iron Dome

And the Houthi Tooty Team just sent Trumpfy a warning as they casually lobbed a missile into tel Aviv .

Are you actually so stupid that you can never see the obvious, or do you just purse your lips and think of the reward from Troll Botting ?

Try and find a sensible purpose in life Celia .

Bad News For Trump's Golden Dome: He Can't Build It Without Canada.

https://www.politico.com/news/2025/05/23/trump-canada-golden-dome-00366410

President Donald Trump left out a key detail this week when he outlined his plans for a massive missile and air defense shield over the continent: He can’t build it without Canada.

And it’s not clear America’s northern neighbor wants in.

Canada would need to play a pivotal role in Trump’s signature, potentially $500 billion effort to build the so-called Golden Dome, according to U.S. officials and experts, with Ottawa providing radars and airspace needed to track incoming missiles in the Arctic.

Oh the irony. Here he is bullying and trying to intimidate Canada and all the while, he needs Canada's help in building his version Reagan's "Star Wars" project (Strategic Defense Initiative SDI.) Right now, 47 is NOT exactly popular with Canadians. They say no, it ain't gonna happen. Irony is ***** ain't Donne?
