::Despite [[PR]] damage control that says the [[Patriot missile]] system has a 90% interception rate, [[Prof. Ted Postol]], who helped design the system, says the interception rate is more like 2%. Nevertheless, [[Lockheed Martin]] was recently given another $5 Billion contract to build more.

And they'll also be happy to jeopardize, ''let me underscore this, which makes me furious beyond stealing from the American people'', jeopardize the future [[security]] of our country. Because if there's a problem with this system, we need to try to make planning adjustments, and [[strategy]] adjustments, and [[tactical]] adjustments as best we can to deal with this incredible shortfall. I'm not sure what those adjustments have to be, but I can tell you making believe that you're intercepting these things when the threat is only going to get bigger and more capable is really a bad choice for planning your [[national security]].|||Ted Postol}}
