      Unfortunately i don’t think this is true. Lots of chatter but no actions. Until americans themselves decide enough is enough, the rest of the world will just find increasingly effective ways of cutting things american from their lives. Frankly you americans probably need to get that foreign visit done soon because i predict borders will close or at least you’ll get spat on or in your food and drink when you travel.

    The same official stressed that the United States is not facing similar shortages and retains significant interceptor reserves. The comment comes amid growing concern that a prolonged war with Iran could rapidly drain missile defence supplies.
