And there's very little strategic logic to that.
One element of development which is a cause of concern, Steve, was the sending of parts, some of the components of the THAAD.
air missile defense system from South Korea has been sent to the Middle East.
And that's a cause of great concern.
THAAD batteries, of course, are very precious commodities, low density, very high demand.
We don't make many of them, particularly the radars are very difficult to construct.
And we don't have many of them.
Iran claims that four of the radars have been damaged in the Middle East.
And whether that's true or not, it seems at least one has been damaged.
And thus, we're taking components from South Korea and sending it to the Middle East.
That has worried the South Koreans considerably and has worried the Japanese and worries Indo-Pacom, of course, because, again, those assets are precious and they serve a very important deterrent function in the Indo-Pacific.
And when you're reducing your deterrent capabilities in the Indo-Pacific to serve the Middle East, the fear is that the likelihood of aggression, of course, from North Korea or from communist China increases.
So that was a worrisome development.
Well, follow Dr. Pickering.
I think that's key to get into that fight right now, that she is standing.
She's preventing civilizational erasure, right, which is happening right now in Texas.
It's happening in the United States.
So back Dr. Pickering and her efforts.
It's absolutely essential to stop this now and to reverse it.
Right.
