Russia is now the world's biggest arms merchant to the developing world. In some cases, these sales seriously undermine American interests and security - and threaten U.S. forces. And they haven't learned from Chechnya that you can't appease militant Muslims.

A missile shield is a defensive effort. Any country that opposes our efforts to defend ourselves and our allies is a country that we really NEED to defend ourselves against. Full speed ahead!

The Bear lost its testicles under the Reagan administration and has been trying to grow them back to this day.

Washington wants to put an X-band radar in the Czech Republic and 10 interceptor missile launchers in Poland; these would add to existing U.S. missile-defense sites in California and Alaska. ...
But Russian Defense Minister Sergei Ivanov scoffed at the idea. His thinking: Neither North Korean nor Iranian missiles can reach Europe right now, so "against whom is this missile-defense system being made?"
It's simple - by the time we need them, it'll be too late to think about deploying them. When it comes to defense, you want to be out in front of the threat - ready to counter it before it develops. North Korea, Iran, and others continue to develop missile and warhead technology.
Also, who is he kidding? 10 interceptors against Russia's thousands of short, medium, intermediate, and intercontinental range missiles? In an all out attack, Russia would lose more missiles to poor quality control and maintenance than they would to a battery of 10 interceptors... He's blowing smoke and posturing. 10 interceptors are no strategic deterrent against Russia, heck, even 100 wouldn't be.

Just to get this straight, we are deploying the defensive missile shield that Reagan started and the liberals said (hoped) would never work? Is this part of the program they derisively called "Star Wars" as if to make it sound like a fantasy? I think this is also the program that the liberals scoffed at when Pres. Bush said we'd keep funding it.
Last I heard, it's working quite well, although it may take a couple shots to hit an incoming missile.

How would the US feel if Russia put a missile defense site in Canada?
But then, they seem to be awful quick to arm our adversaries.

Amazing that we can have a discussion about two different things (football, nuclear holocaust) and still keep them separate.
