This after the threat to stop transit of Supplies to Afghanistan through Russia. With Pakistan boarder closed the next step pressure on the Stans to shut down too.
All this for a so-called defensive shield again Iran. What are they smoking?

Medvedev may or may not know this but Iran has ballistic missiles capable of hitting all of Europe. Russia can be a partner in deploying a defensive anti-missile system designed to counter this threat or it can return to a Cold War confrontational posture in which no one’s interests are served.

There’s no denying that the Russians have ‘leverage’ in light of the severing of the NATO supply lines through Pakistan. I guess that’s all we need to know.

The Russians sense America's leadership weakness.

Russia sold those missiles to Iran and helped them develop their nuclear program.

Methinks the Russians doth protest too much.

That’s right, Putie. Light-up those radar for no good reason right now.
Did the Russians not ever leave the base at Kaliningrad or are they leasing it now?

photos should be reversed in that graphic because the word positions surely don’t fit as proper captions

The photo you are using is from a Russian WWII battle reenactment. The reenactors in the background wear WWII winter uniforms and carry the WWII-era military banners.
You are probably trying to say that Putin is a Communist and Russia is USSR. That’s fair enough; but using this particular pic to prove it is a tactic worthy of liberal media.

Russia has turned on a new incoming missile early warning system in its westernmost region in response to US plans for a missile shield in Europe. That fine with me. We aren't going to be lobbing missiles at Russia.
Russia should be a lot more worried about incoming missiles from the south-south-west. If you don't know what I mean, look at a map: that's the Middle East.

Why does Medvedev/Putin ignore the fact that eventually Iran will turn on Russia? Have they forgotten Beslan? I am no Russia/Putin fan, but I do not wish on them another Beslan, or worse.
