'저는 그들의 땅을 지키기 위하여 싸웠던 인디안들의 이야기를 기억합니다. 백인들이 그들의 신성한 숲에 도로를 만들기 위하여 나무들을 잘랐습니다. 매일밤 인디안들이 나가서 백인들이 만든 그 길을 해체하면 그 다음 날 백인들이 와서 도로를 다시 짓곤 했습니다. 한동안 그 것이 반복되었습니다. 그러던 어느날, 숲에서 가장 큰 나무가 백인들이 일할 동안 그들 머리 위로 떨어져 말과 마차들을 파괴하고 그들 중 몇몇을 죽였습니다. 그러자 백인들은 떠났고 결코 다시 오지 않았습니다….' (브루스 개그논)

Japan to Test Missile Interceptor

Japan is set today to test a missile defense system in collaboration with the
United States, Reuters reported (see GSN, Oct. 15).

The flight-intercept trial near Hawaii is intended to demonstrate Japan's readiness to properly field a Raytheon Standard Missile 3 Block 1A interceptor against a medium-range ballistic missile target, the U.S. Missile Defense Agency said.

The Japanese destroyer JS Kirishima has been outfitted with defense contractor Lockheed Martin's Aegis ballistic missile defense system. It is one of six Japanese battleships to be supplied with the technology....

The missile interceptor test is expected to confirm "the ability of the Japan Aegis BMD system to monitor and report ballistic missile track information and assess the ability of the Japan Aegis BMD system to plan a BMD mission in tactical situations," the Pentagon branch said.
....
Japan is working with Washington on preparing a bigger and more advanced
interceptor -- the SM-3 Block 2A -- which could be fielded in approximately
eight years (Jim Wolf, Reuters, Oct. 28).
