Heard that BHO in his awesome foreign policy, will be in essence halting all missile defense systems in central Europe.

The Polish PM Tusk declined to take Hillary's call too,...

This is also the 70th Anniversary of Poland's invasion in WWII. (ironic?), with everything in this country screwed up, why not spread the ineptness and protection of our allies.

Dismay in Europe as Obama ditches missile defence

http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/news/world/europe/article6838058.ece

President Obama dismayed America's allies in Europe and angered his political opponents at home today when he formally ditched plans to set up a missile defence shield in Poland and the Czech Republic.


The project had been close to the heart of Mr Obama's predecessor, President Bush, who had argued before leaving office in January that it was needed to defend against long-range ballistic missile attacks from rogue states such as Iran and North Korea.

But it had hobbled relations with Russia, which considered it both a security threat and an unnecessary political provocation in its own backyard.

At a White House appearance today, Mr Obama confirmed that the defence shield envisaged by the Bush Administration, involving a radar base in the Czech Republic and interceptor rockets sited in Poland, was being abandoned.


Instead, after a comprehensive review, he had decided to accept the advice of both the Defense Secretary, Robert Gates, and of the Chiefs of Staff opt for a "smarter, stronger and swifter" system involving both sea-based and land-based mobile interceptors.

Let Iran get nukes, the IAEA leaked an acknowledgment of IRAN can build nuclear weapons anytime. (DUH!)...

Russia is opposing stronger sanctions against Iran,,,,hmmmmm,,, like they did any good anyway,.... and Putin won on this issue.

What is the U.S. getting out of it? Remember BHO's campaign speech regarding our NATO allies?
If they attack one, they attack all?

I don't trust Putin. Even if Bush "looked into his soul",,,(dumb) :P  Iran's little man, is a dangerous bastard.

The reports of America as the leading world power are being taken down a notch, in the world news reports, which is what the Apologizer In Chief wants...

Carter version 2.0....




Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

Another forum posted a note that maybe this is payback for Russia not doing anything if/when Israel zaps Iran's nukes.

Still, it stinks, and good for the Polish PM!

 The really Ironic part is that today is the 70th anniversary of the "Stab in the Back" Russian invasion of Eastern Poland, 2 weeks after the Nazi invasion of the Western half of the country.
