And at the same time the U.S govermnet is wondering - why those stubborn Poles demand us to move some Patriot missiles from Germany to Poland in exchange for hosting the missile defence shield on their territory (sarcasm).

Where’s the EU border? I’m familiar with Poland, France, Germany, Spain, and sometimes I can even point to Whales on a map. Maybe the border is something that is defined in the EU constitution...

Obama Promises to Dismantle Our Armed Forces
by Robert Maginnis
Posted 04/10/2008 ET

(Mr. Maginnis is a retired Army lieutenant colonel, a national security and foreign affairs analyst for radio and television and a senior strategist with the U.S. Army)

YouTube has an undated 52-second clip of Democratic presidential candidate Senator Barrack Obama outlining his plans for America’s national defense. Obama’s presentation demonstrates either total naivete about important national security programs or he is just pandering for votes among the extreme left.

Guess we can take out their air force with artillery, could be some cost savings here. And aren’t those missiles supposed to be easier targets in the launch phase anyways?
