Personally, I would like it in Turkey at Incirlik Air Base.

The way BO has been dising Israel you can count them out.

[gaijin]

They’ll locate a US missile defense system for Europe in Israel...um...ok....

Will they put the US border patrol in **Greenland**...?

This is getting COMPLICATED.

[NonValueAdded]

Doesn't a move much further south, closer to the likely launch sites require a MUCH FASTER response time to make the intercept? Will Barry even have time for the 3 AM phone call?

Is Poland another ally being dismissed by this strange cabal we have infesting our foreign policy? What is the strategerie?

[Nachum]

The list, ping

[Huskrrrr]

The exact location will be published in the NY Times.

Just take a globe and run a string from Iran to Europe and the USA and you will see why Poland and the Czech Republic were chosen.

You will also see why these sites are no threat to Russia, which has its ICBMs along the TransSiberian railroad which sends them across Siberia and the Arctic nowhere near the Polish/Czeck sites.

[Historix]

Since BHO seems to admire the legacy of FDR, it is fitting that he would sell Poland down the river again. We were cowards at Yalta and buckled to Stalin and now BHO is going to kiss Putin’s A@@ and go back on an agreement that poses no real threat to Russia. If Russia wanted to initiate a nuclear attack on the West with its many ICBM’s or bombers, will 10 ABM sites really matter that much?

"Balkans or Turkey"

Putting a missle defense to protect against an Islamic bomb in an Islamic country does NOT make sense.

[Mariner]

However, by placing a strategic asset in Israel it would send a message to the world that the US will do whatever it takes to defend that asset.

That's why the ABM stuff won't go there under an Obama admin.

[Thunder90]

Besides throwing Ukraine and Georgia under the bus, Obama has now thrown Poland and the Czech Republic under it too.

[kamikaze2000]

Looks like the trend of screwing over our friends and caving in to our enemies is continuing full speed.

‘RUSSIA TO RETHINK S-300 SALE TO IRAN’ (Aug 19 Jerusalem Post)

President Shimon Peres wrapped up a two-day visit to Russia Wednesday, saying the Kremlin promised to reconsider the planned delivery of S-300 air defense missiles to Iran that Israel and the US fear could be used to protect Iran's nuclear facilities.

Russian President Dmitry Medvedev made the pledge during their talks Tuesday in the Black Sea resort of Sochi, Peres said.

There, or Israel.

I can think of no better way to stick it in the eye of communists, radical Islamists, liberals, and other mushy-headed idiots around the world.

..."the current U.S. administration is searching for other solutions than the previously bases in Poland and the Czech Republic," Riki Ellison, chairman of the Missile Defense Advocacy Alliance, a Washington-based lobby group, told the newspaper.
