Ask yourself how we would view a Russian implemented anti missile defense sight on our Canadian border, over the Mexican border or in Cuba.

Not a valid analogy. There is not a terrorist country with a nuke program in the western hemisphere.

I think you’ve got a point, but then you can’t discount the fear factor completely. Russia has it’s own best interests to look out for.

Are we putting those missile defense systems throughout Europe?

I honestly don’t know. I haven’t heard much if any talk about them in other parts of Europe.

I would think Germany would be a prime place to put them, and perhaps France.

I would think Turkey would feel exposed, and parts of Russia as well as the former break away provinces. Russia and the lower provinces are problematic though. Russia won’t be given them, and the provinces are situated where we probably won’t give them to them either.

I also think Putin has been reckless with regard to Iran, since it is so close to the region. He rails on us for the defense system, then gives Iran nuclear technology and runs interference for them.

If he thinks that school attack a few years back was terrible, wait until Iran’s proxies send a nuke over in a truck.
