I'm glad you see things my way, Bob. Although I wouldn't go as far as dropping rocks (thinking of net casualties - we're not Santa Anna's army here). Instead, I'd make surgical strikes on targets that enable their space ability. Namely places of R&D where we can come in, smash their stuff, and get out with a minimum of bloodshed on both parties. TSAB would be a big target. So's Northrop-Grunman as well as Boeing. And let's not forget Ratheon - the last thing I want to be seeing is interplanetary cruise missiles! And don't you dare think that they aren't working on it. Nobody in the general public knew anything about the Manhatten project until the the first test.
And before someone else jumps in my shit about it, let me remind you about what I'm talking about: it does not hurt to be ready, both mentally and logistically. I'm not talking about moving troops or having 'training exercises'. I'm talking about having plans in place and making sure your equipment is in top shape. In the unlikely event of things going to shit, I want to give these ass-hats as few advantages as possible - I'm not having any more 'Alamo Massacres' like we did before.

Santa Anna: "It now remains for him to be generous to the vanquished."
Sam Houston: "You should have thought of that at the Alamo."
