As these recent Wall Street Journal articles (see here and here) illustrate, the Obama administration is significantly reducing spending on defensive systems to stop a ballistic missile attack. Obama would rather the United States have no defense against missile attack, so our enemies feel "safer" and be comfortable in not developing nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles.
Instead, our enemies such as Iran see such behavior as further encouragement to develop these weapons, since we appear weak in our resolve to stop them.
