MDA is an agency within the DOD and staffed as such. Its budget and priorities are subjected to congressional oversight as all DOD agencies. The current chairs of the House whose committees oversee MDA probably have views similar to yours. It is not credible to claim they would allow MDA to rig tests so they are not realistic.Your political leanings are the source and motivation for your opposition to missile defense. As I said, Russia can count on internal US divisions to lessen any impact of cheating or to advocate that they really don't want to spend money on weapons. By the way, you spend money for weapons not because you want to but because you have strategic objectives which require military backing or threat. Its a tougher sell to say they don't have strategic objectives that are counter to US interests.The US duly notifies its intent to withdraw and adheres to schedules for doing so. I am unfamiliar with this US cheating you mention. Did we build nukes we weren't supposed to or hid missiles? Since you are in a position to know, you are aware how much we have dismantled our nuclear weapons production capability. The asymmetry that now exists because Russia did not do likewise is just another item you find unimportant.
