  • $\begingroup$ I added the bolded question at the bottom to try to clarify what you're asking, is that what you intend? (I included "easily combat" because that seems reasonable to "assure destruction" and "reproduce" because you asked for a system that is not proliferation-prone.) $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 23, 2016 at 3:35
  • $\begingroup$ The asteroid plan doesn't work because, once US capitulates, it can be compelled to use its asteroid deflecting technology. The conquerors even have a few years to twist the thumbscrews to make it happen. $\endgroup$ Commented Dec 24, 2016 at 0:55
