	First-Strike (page 1)
		By launching the first strike suddenly and unexpectedly, you use the element of surprise to demolish the attacker's defenses, gain superiority, and ultimately end the threat.
		First strike does not mean one strike, which is the principle of delivering one quick and powerful strike in the hope that it will end the confrontation.
		First strike does not mean you may attack with impunity.

		NGC says it will designate a coin "first strike" if it arrives with the proper documentation at the company within the first month of release or is submitted in sealed U.S. Mint packaging at a later date.

	America's Nuclear Strategy: Defensive or First Strike?
		In a US first strike, destroying an enemy’s early warning and communications satellites would hinder getting the launch command to his missiles before they are destroyed.
		Yet the pinpoint accuracy of those weapons makes them deadly against extremely hard targets such as missile silos targets which must be destroyed in a first strike before the missiles are launched.
		But what is being developed would just as easily intercept enemy missiles that survived a US first strike.

	First Strike Guidelines: the case of Iraq -- Project on Defense Alternatives
		In the first Clinton administration Secretary of Defense Les Aspin announced that the United States would seek the capability to undertake offensive counterproliferation strikes against proliferators of weapons of mass destruction (WMD).
		He also emphasizes that preemptive or first strike attack is only one of a number of tools the U.S. possesses with which to deal with a radical state that acquires weapons of mass destruction and, as such, should be a choice of last resort.
		If we include in "first strike capability" the intelligence required to identify all WMD sites for targeting in a raid, then our assessment has to be "no".

	Overlawyered: Litigious Numismatists Launch First Strike on "First Strikes"
		Their spokespersons maintain that the companies' definitions of "first strike" are clear, acccurate and reasonable.
		The story makes clear that any knowledgeable collector should know that "first strike" status is by and large an abstract concept: it is "first strike" because people say it is "first strike," with little or no objective correlation to the physical quality of the coin in question.
		The suit is a change of pace for the plaintiff's counsel, the Miami firm of Lipcon, Margulies and Alsina, whose website emphasizes their specialty in bringing suits against cruise lines.

		The First Strike chart has Mars in Capricorn, easily destroying traditional targets, but the Neptune in Aquarius shows that it is much harder to find Osama Bin Laden, his equipment and forces, and take them out.
		America will see how little these strikes will do to lessen the threat of terrorist attacks at home, and the Taliban will be forced to change or cease to exist as a government.
		If you listened to Bush's speech announcing the strikes, he illustrated all the concerns of this T-square: we are only bombing the Taliban/Terrorist military and communications targets, while simultaneously dropping massive quantities of food and medicine to civilians in Afghanistan, and that this is not a war against Islam.

		My argument is not that these will go away on a market, but that their actions would have to conform to the demands of consumers or they would no longer be in business." Column by Angelo Mike.
