Obama To Russia: Stop Iranian Nuclear Weapon And US Will Scrap Missile Defence [OMG!]

London Times ^ | July 07, 2009

[Welcome2thejungle]

Yeah and if SDI didn’t work, why do the Russians want it stopped so badly?

[kabar]

We don’t have the numbers to protect us from an all-out Russian attack. Certainly not now

[DoughtyOne]

Folks, this is addressing the plan to install missile defense in Eastern Europe.  It is not address our implementation of a missile defense in the U.S.

I disagree with Obama here.  I think he's nuts.  He's not a good negotiator.  However, he's an excellent capitulator.

Russia is playing a suicidal game with Iran's nuclear program.  If Iran gets the bomb it will transfer tech or devices to terrorists.

Russia stands a very good chance of being the first victim of one of those bombs.

                          The following is directed to Freepers who haven't donated or signed up for monthlies yet...

13% is good.  100% is better.  You know you're going to do it.  Pull the trigger!  You don't have to pay it all now.  $5 now, $25 next week, $10 later... keep the ball rolling.

Monthly donorship is a good way for us to avoid having to do the Freepathons.  Besides, it's a great way to pony up in style.
If you're on the verge of becoming a monthly donor or you think you would like to up your monthly donation a bit, has Jim got a deal for you. 
Check this out.  There's an added incentive for a limited time only.  (Always wanted to type that...)

Thanks to Freepers who have been frequenting the Freepathon thread to ham it up with folks over there.  It helps to raise the visibility of the Freepathon.

Jump into the Monthly Donorship special thread too.  There are horderves, hot women with short skirts, and beer too.  Alert, the pizza just showed up!  It's a partaaaee...
Ladies, there were 15 lifeguards over there a few minutes ago.  (I'm beginning to feel a bit guilty... heh heh heh...)

[Humal]

Does he have the authority to do this? Doesn’t Congress have a say in the matter?

“We don’t have the numbers to protect us from an all-out Russian attack. Certainly not now”

Not so.

AEGIS is deployed on 81 serving naval ships around the globe, with more than 25 additional AEGIS-equipped ships planned or under contract.

[Hegewisch Dupa]

He’s right place, right time and in the hands of some of the most wrong people out there - that I’ll agree with - but he’s never shown even an iota of smarts. The Chicago machine needed an a$$lick, he fit the bill. Since then a lot has gone his way. He’s got handlers who make a lot of money keeping him where he is, and a media that would do anything for him - but that’s hardly his doing.

As of June 2006, the US Navy has equipped 3 Ticonderoga class cruisers, the USS Lake Erie, USS Shiloh and USS Port Royal, with anti-ballistic missile capability. The US Navy is currently converting 15 additional Arleigh Burke-class destroyers to incorporate the Aegis BMD capability. These ships include: USS John Paul Jones, and USS Russell, USS Ramage, USS Benfold,USS Milius and USS Decatur.[1] A total of 3 cruisers and 15 destroyers are scheduled to have BMD capability by 2009.[2]

[nikos1121]

seems to me he was impeached.

[Welcome2thejungle]

I WISH he was a stupid idiot. I think he knows exactly whate he wants and has the means to achieve his objectives: Marxism and disarmament for America.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well ain’t that special? No OTHER Marxist country has surrendered arms. Why should we?

[Welcome2thejungle]

BHO wants to weaken our military to fund his ambitious socialist domestic agenda. Get a clue. He will do to America what Clement Atlee did to Great Britain.

Obama to Russia: stop Iranian nuclear weapon and US will scrap missile defence F*cking TREASON.

[HiTech RedNeck]

I see this as a strategic misdirection on Moscow’s part. Moscow actually cares little about a teeny tiny increase in the number of nukes needed to immolate Europe. It cares much about the ability of a puppet, Iran, to hold America hostage. Look where the leverage is.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Well yeah, I know. But he’s even selling Marxism out. Wouldn’t he want America to be a mighty Marxist power?

U.S. Navy Christens Aegis Destroyer ‘MUSTIN’ Built By Northrop Grumman

We don't exactly advertise....

[DaveTesla]

Lockheed Martin is developing the Aegis ballistic missile defence (BMD) capability for the Aegis combat system to engage ballistic missiles with the SM-3 missile. 15 Arleigh Burke destroyers have been fitted with the Aegis BMD system, which provides the capability for long-range surveillance, tracking and engagement of short and medium-range ballistic missiles. The system received US Navy certification for full deployment in September 2006. Work was completed on the 15 destroyers at the end of 2008 and the vessels, with three Ticonderoga cruisers, form the Aegis BMD fleet.

Cool. Missile defense would only protect two things that both love Obama: Europe, and American cities.

Eff 'em both.

A verbis ad verbera

[TheBattman]

That is the point - 0bama doesn't care at all about defending the US from ANYTHING.

0bama is the biggest traitor to ever be in the office of President. Truly sad when one starts thinking that Bill or Hillary would be MUCH better.... I guess compared to 0bama, Hillary really was a "moderate"...

And from all I have heard - 0bama plans to enforce this pseudo-treaty along with the other arms "deals" by an end-run around the Constitution using Executive Orders to bring about the promised cuts.

I really wish our military would do with 0bama what the Honduran military did with their despot who was trying to circumvent their constitution. I believe that the oath when entering the US Armed forces is that they will protect the US from ALL ENEMIES, both foreign and DOMESTIC. 0bama qualifies as both....

If we are not all on our knees, humbled before God Almighty, then it is our own fault that our country is dying.

2 Chronicles 7:14 - "If my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land." This is the same message promoted by Call2Fall this past Sunday. (Call2Fall.com)

[TheBattman]

I thought it was a planned deterrent to a Russian attack?

Initially, yes - it was to deter a Russian attack. But as time has gone by, the threat has changed and the same defense system is there as a general protection - as part of the defense grid for us an our allies, regardless of where the threat originates.

[DaveTesla]

Many many Americans worked tirelessly to build up a superior
defense network. Many lost their lives doing it.

Give it away and you will be someones surf.
Sooner than you think
