I wonder what would happen if the US actually did have the Star Wars missile defense system up and running, and the world found out in such a way. I don't think much would be openly said against it by any government except North Korea...

China and Russia would have a *lot* to bitch about, and France would be annoyed. If Britain wasn't included, they'd be pretty indignant.
The rest would all be kinda annoyed, but they couldn't do much. Except. These are the UN Security Council permanent members.

Touché. I tend to neglect Russia's and China's impact on "the global stage", since they both have fairly large issues on a national scale which need to be addressed (namely China's huge population in the constraints of a command economy, and Russia's population implosion). The EU as a whole would be annoyed, but fairly paralysed, since Britain would likely support the defense system, even if it wasn't a part of it; Blair tends to rely on Bush too much to dissent.
And don't even get me started on the UN... They'd be wondering what label to affix to the Star Wars missile defense system fiasco while the rest of the world was bitching...
