The U.S. is taking needed “precautionary” steps to bolster its missile defense system on the West Coast because of recent threats by North Korea, said Senator Bob Corker of Tennessee, the top Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.

“I don’t think they have the delivery mechanisms that are necessary to really harm us, but I think it’s really good that we’re taking those precautionary measures to make sure that they cannot do damage,” Corker said yesterday on the “Fox News Sunday” program.
