Considering that our own Demagogues say that missile defense will never work, and that Obambi still derides it as “unproven”...... it seems that the Russkies must have a bit more faith in our technical prowess than do our own Demagogues. Russia is always hyperventilating against a “missile shield” that our libs have been saying for 25 years is an impossibility......
“it seems that the Russkies must have a bit more faith in our technical prowess”
And you should give the Russians their due too that the Iranian long range missiles, let alone miniaturized nukes for warheads, are myths.
The Russians can only “logically” think the shield is meant against them, somehow. They do no understand how big government and the military industrial complex interact.
It’s amazing. America’s post-cold war goodwill in Czech and Poland could be blown by this boondoggle. I thought we had a chance with Rumsfeld, the former star wars lobbyist, gone we could be gone with this. Evidently not.
