Your irony not in place Venezuela was the first sign Cuba will be the second. Russia becoming real independent (Yeltsin nah). Poland and Geordjia nowdays proxi of US, but this situation endin sooner or later. I put this through the Google translator, and I still didn't get English! I think it's written in secret code, and I don't have a decoder ring.

If US place missile defenses in Poland, sooner or later Russia will place the missile defenses in Cuba.
Now you get the message?
To: Grzegorz 246
Poland might defend itself from a massive Russian attack? Putin can't allow that.
To: inf0infinity
That threat is supposed to scare us?
To: Tailgunner Joe
That threat is supposed to scare us?
Threat? What a threat? Do you suppose or agree that defense system can be a threat? :)))
To: inf0infinity
Not really. The Russians don't like our defense system because they want to threaten us with nuclear missiles. They can go to Hell.
To: twinself
"Poland, once a close ally of Moscow" - is that what AFP calls it? They were under the Iron thumb of the USSR, but to the AFP, they were allies... Disgusting.

(" Depose NANCY!" What did you and other Dem leaders know and when about Foley???)
To: Tailgunner Joe
Russians the only nation who posses the nuclear missiles, yes?
The Americans don't threaten anyone with nuclear missiles, yes?
Do you hear anything about MAD?
To: inf0infinity
You're stuck in the cold war. MAD is soon to be a thing of the past, comrade.
To: Tailgunner Joe
You are wrong, mister.
Neither Russia, nor US lose the ability to comblitly destroy each other.
US strikes Russia ought to retaliate, and surely will retaliate.
To: twinself; All
Well, as an American, I love being magnificently powerful. But I don't see any benefit to giving the Ruskies the big middle finger all up in their faces like this. After all, we can already hit anything anywhere. Why the blatant (and unproductive) provocation of Russia when it doesn't even increase our capabilities? Unless there is some secret advantage that is not apparent.

And we would attack Russia...why?

I'm not sure I understand your meaning. You mean hold a revolver to Russia's temple and say "Do what we say!"? I don't think that's smart foreign policy, and again I repeat, we can already hit anything anywhere.
But maybe I don't understand your meaning.

Yes, I don't think you fully understand my point. These are missle defense systems, not offensive nuclear weapons. I would not support putting offensive weapons in Poland. I believe these are designed to shoot down Russian weapons if they are launched. And I believe we are doing these because Poland is a great ally who has been oppressed by Russia for centuries; and because Russia has stood against us on Iraq and Iran and now we are putting pressure back on them. I still believe that Russia may be a bigger threat to America than anything. I hope I'm wrong, but they have not been acting like an ally.
To: Alfonso1000
Ah yes, yes, defenses. Well missile defense, I support that. Who can object to defensive systems, after all? And Poles are sort of "good people" we should spend our time and money on (Australians and Japanese also being in that group IMO)
So heck yeah, slap those babies in there, and screw Putin.

Agreed about Japan and Australia. They may need them more than the Poles do.
To: HHKrepublican_2
So can the US issue a "corresponding" action to Russia cutting off Georgia from civilization?As I recall, in their incredible arrogance, they warned Bush to stay out of it.
