Correction I just searched the story after seeing it break, and this is what I found!
Obama abandons missile defence shield in Europe and gives the Russians the go-ahead to take Europe by force. lol

What the F is wrong with NBC they can't report facts?

Even the AP decided to run this story with a deceptive headline. NATO chief hails missile defense "positive step"

BRUSSELS — NATO Secretary-General Anders Fogh Rasmussen says a U.S. decision to shelve plans for a missile shield in the Czech Republic and Poland "is a positive step."
Fogh Rasmussen says he had talks with the U.S. top envoy to the alliance on Thursday morning about the changes in the plans, adding the full alliance will be debriefed later in the day.
Fogh Rasmussen says new U.S. plans would improve the involvement of all NATO nations.
Czech Premier Jan Fischer said Thursday that President Barack Obama told him Washington has decided to scrap the plan that had deeply angered Russia.

Yes, and billions of dollars later, after all of the research in which finally a perfected system arrives...and is promptly scrapped. :roll:

Yes, we can trust them with our health.... lawdy .. :roll:

Eastern Europe is PISSED, but what can they say officially?... Not much, they have to suck it up and put on the brave face.

Russia is laughing at us.... hard and loud. TY Mr. President. Any other weakness you'd like to telegraph to our enemies? Wait till they stop laughing so they see it....

:lol:

Russia is no threat to us. Maybe that's why Obama decided to scrap the program?

Maybe its time to transition away from apocolyptic governance? Or are you still afraid of Mother Russia?

But no, it must be because he is weak, as opposed to the strength of the Bush administration. They were SO strong, they would just invade anyone, without a clear reason, plan, purpose, or strategy.

You sound just like a tea-bagger to me.

This is perhaps the most thoroughly un-educated post I have read.

So, France, Great Britain, and Germany don't have nukes in CASE Russia did, for some globally tragic reason, attack Europe?

And of course, if they did attack Europe, they would just drop a buncha nukes, right? LOL.

Russia looks toward Europe as a potential place to expand its population. Try getting your citizens to move to a nuclear wasteland...

Man, you guys are SCARED, huh?

Good old Bush, now he would make us feel nice and safe, right? Let's just kill everyone, then we don't need to worry anymore....

Take a fricking Xanex.

No one said russia is a threat to us.... they are a threat to eastern europe... where the missile defense system was going to be placed. The intent is not to make Russia stand down but to offer a shield from Iran's craziness.
Russia need not fire rockets into eastern Europe or western. they simply wait for winter and turn off the pipelines.

It's about keeping a promise. it's about staying at the cutting edge militarily. Obama is moth balling all of our best weaponry with the absurd notion of saving a few billion bucks when he is spending Trillions in stimulus bills.

Even a slow witted stooge can look around today and see that there are places ijn the world literally ready to explode. We sure hope they don't.... but what if they do? The USA has already proven to the world on numerous occasions that we cannot last in a sustained fight. The ppl are spoiled and grow weary if anything interrupts their Ipod tunes.

It's in our best interest to have a vastly superior military position over everybody. Obama thinks he's got it covered. he won't be the first to be very very wrong in that assumption, and if he is, mothballing our high tech fighters and missile defense shields will cost us blood down the road. Just remember that.

Remember when the soldiers couldn't get the latest body armor? Drastic cuts in the military by Clinton had lasting effects. If Clinton had known 9/11 was coming upon the nation, he surely would not have crippled the military and the CIA now would he..........

You cut social programs before you lower your security capabilities.... always.

Well I wrote out a long response, went to post it, and the RIU database crashed.

So, I wrote it again. Then, it crashed again when posting. So I will just say this:

Do you really think Israel is going to allow Iran to become that powerful?

You are letting people use your fear to get you to believe things that just are not true.

The military/industrial complex in this country is SO strong, THAT'S what this is all about.

Haliburton, Blackwater, this BS "Star Wars" system, its all just people trying to scare the shit outta you.

And most of those places that are about to blow up....are because WE agitated them.

Since the last WW, the US has been the single GREATEST force in invasion, war, and destablization. We don't want peace; its bad for business. You need more knowledge, and less bs political ideology, based on fear and half truths. Do some research on this nation and then come talk to me. I don't go to the town halls for a reason; I have no patience for scared wackos who perpetuate nonsense.

Give me liberty, or give me death.

I know that an F-22 is a heck of lot better than the F-35. You don't just give up ur edge. Japan is clamoring for our F-22's and for good reason. This plane is a winner. The F-35 is a dog compared to it.

I know we have spent many many billions of dollars over 20 years to perfect the missile defense system. I know that eastern Europe desperately wants it. We've already spent the design and testing funds.... since when does it make sense to quit when ur near the finish line?
Since when can a President double out national debt, and in the same breath say we can't afford top shelf military hardware anymore. Since when does walking away from our agreements help us later on? Who will trust us? It's all about trust. No one in the world really trusts us right now..... Obama snubs England... tells the EU to go left, they go right. Attaches missile defense to our nuclear talks with Russia (it's called caving over the phone before the meeting). We recognize the Iranian elections but scold Honduras for taking their constitution seriously. We say we will no longer nation build and tell other nations what to do, and then tell Israel they can't build houses in certain areas.

Who will trust us? I don't trust us. If they don't trust you, then you must make them fear you. Then we're back again to no F-22's and capitulations to Russia.

Oh, and Putin is going to be Premier ... again. Wait for it. It's a shell game.

Oh sure, you want a point by point? :lol: No worries.

Russia does not need nukes to take eastern europe. Not how it will be done..... and yes, if Obama keeps it up with the total appeasement angle, Eastern Europe will eventually be absorbed back to Russia.... a key goal for the russians.
The missile defense system was not for protection from Russia however, it was protection from Iran. Difference.

No one thinks Russia is going to use nukes against europe. I don't know who told you that.....

It's about keeping promises. You do realize that Russia has a missile defense system...... right?

You do know that they have a missile defense systen near North korea in case of an "errant" launch............ right?

Think about it. Do you not see the hypocrisy before ur eyes?

By the way, usually when you sacrifice an important chess piece in a game, you get something in return.

Obama got ZERO for that sacrifice.... ZERO. Russia didn't give up anything.... a win/win for them. A lot of Vodka has been poured in Moscow this week. They are incredulously happy to have Obama as President.

You seem confused. Is the missle shield about the Russians or Iran? Who are you scared of? Oh wait, BOTH of them....Do you see how convoluted fear gets?

If the missle shield was to protect Eastern Europe against Iran, than how does not building it mean Russia will absorb it?

They are two seperate concerns and you are mixing them just like the ol' right wing nut jobs love. You are so scared you don't know who to be scared of anymore.

No one thinks Russia is going to use nukes against europe. I don't know who told you that.....
Well that's what you implied, that this missle shield will somehow strengthen Eastern Europe against Russia. Yet, you just said Russia isn't going to bomb EU. So how does that work? You are devoid of logic here...

It's about keeping promises. You do realize that Russia has a missile defense system...... right?
You live in a fantasy world. If Russia and the US or Europe or any major powers engaged in nuclear warfare, in would be apolcalyptic. There would be no shield nor system that could protect anyone. Do you have any idea what you are talking about??

The US, Russia, GB, France, and China all have intercontinental ballistic missles plus stelth subs. They would fire everything at once and that would be that. Are you telling me we have the technology to shoot down tens of thousands of war heads in the space of minutes, perhaps an hour or two? RESEARCH.

You do know that they have a missile defense systen near North korea in case of an "errant" launch............ right?
Man, I thought you at least had SOME idea as to what you are talkin about...guess not...

North Korea are you serious? No one could even track a North Korean missle properly to lock on to it. They never have a stable trajectory! You don't even get how this work bro!

Think about it. Do you not see the hypocrisy before ur eyes?

By the way, usually when you sacrifice an important chess piece in a game, you get something in return.
That's what you think. Actually, Russia has already announced they are backing down from locating more nukes near eastern Europe (Poland, specifically) and they have hardened their stance on Iran.

Obama got ZERO for that sacrifice.... ZERO. Russia didn't give up anything.... a win/win for them. A lot of Vodka has been poured in Moscow this week. They are incredulously happy to have Obama as President.
See, you assume again. You just don't understand...

Russia sells Iran most of its gasoline. Iran produces crude oil but lacks the refining capabilities to adequately supply its population with fuel. Get it now?

Obama would really like to deal with Iran in a way that doesn't make the Jews in Israel blow the damn country off the map. Through Russia and the inflammation of the Iranian youth, we will see if it works, or if old Ben Gurion marches East once again...

You really should do some reading though...Things are never what they seem, and you have a habit of accepting it all at face value. Not probing, asking the tough questions.

When the populace ceases to care, SHIT hits the fan. Look at Germany in the 1930's and 40's...

You are the one who is confused.

You are the one who is using convoluted logic. Your entire post is nothing except excuses and sideways thinking.

No one is confused but you on who the missile system is designed for... Iran. No one except Russia has disagreed with it. So that is the company you keep with.... the Russians... no one else. :roll: ur confusion, don't try and pass it off on others.

This will help you sort out the rest of ur posts, which skew from that errant perspective onward.


North Korea.... So U don't see the hypocrisy? Or U just can't admit it. :roll:
Please don't speculate on what N.Korea can and cannot do. You don't even know what the EU missile defense system is about.
The Russians have put a missile defense system on the border...... nuff said. It's plain and obvious. lawdy.

Chess pieces.... again, u seem to know nothing of negotiation methodologies. You don't just give up on ur promises to other nations who at great risk to themselves, stick their necks out. Poland knows the history books. They know what rolls from out of the east. You do not. You don't care about them. Neither does Obama. the Poles now know this as well. Way to treat ur allies. Everyone is watching....

You don't give something up and get nothing in return. That's not negotiating.... that's capitulation.

That's what Obama just did. Europe sees it, Russia sure sees it (vodka flows), Iran sees it..... everyone sees it..... except for the deranged left.

Truly naive.................

Lol see, there you go again.

You ignore all my logic and just revert back to your bullshit ideology as if it were fact.

I can see I am wasting my time trying to debate someone who is TRULY RULED BY FEAR.

We are going to have to learn to all get along together, or we're through.

try getting ur "facts" in order before u post.
Why are you shuffling you feet? You got a wide stance like that Senator from the airport bathroom?

I gave you the facts and you ignored them. I'm not going to keep repeating myself.

You didn't even address what I said in your response. So I am done.

You don't have any facts. you have a bunch of opinions.... suppositions.

Facts look like this:

Poland is finally convinced to put in a missile defense system for protection from IRAN.

Russia says it's really about them (no one believes this except them)

Obama links missile defense to nuclear disarmament in talks with the Russians

Russia puts in a missile defense system of their own near the north Korean border

USA missile defense shield is now at 80% accuracy and the accuracy is climbing (meaning most of the failures were iin the beginning, not the present)

Obama pulls missile shield defense system after all the money has already been invested in its success

Obama gets ZERO for giving yp the missile program (remember it was linked to russian nuclear disarmament)

Poland is pissed, eastern Europe is pissed. (read their papers, not ours)


Russia celebrates a victory over the USA (read their papers, not ours)


Those are facts.

If you wish to dispute those facts... go ahead and TRY.

It's not fear. It's common sense. Not all too common it seems.

The President sure doesn't have it.
