I wonder if this genius has considered the new hyper sonic capabilities they have.

Even the most informed of military people have said there is no known reliable defense against those.

Dam good thing that the range of those is just about 600 miles or so.

But, as you know, Cuba is just 90 miles off the coast.

Not really. They have the FOBS, that is the spooky one.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional_Orbital_Bombardment_System

Those hypersonics they used in theater are not the main threat. FOBS is hard to detect, goes into a very low earth orbit, and approaches around the southern hemisphere. Our historic DEW line and defenses are arrayed to the north. These things can come in from the south and would be detected only minutes before impact. China has them too.
Even worse, though space based systems have a shot a seeing them, there is another problem. You can put it in an orbiting platform, and the nuclear attack isn’t missiles in silos rising somewhere in Russia. It is the mere deorbiting of a device that has been orbiting for months and was not what it seemed when launched.

At a time like this no, we do not need neocons, the pentagram, and Biden lunatics in charge.

What many do not know is during the Cuban missile crisis (we were a hairs brath from nuclear war) that Russia already had the missiles and devices there to fire at any time.

That’s why US wants control of Ukraine so badly - they want to put missiles and military bases there. ..and they surely would given the opportunity.

Most of Europe is already covered.
