I could even see the Russians floating nuclear tipped (and conventional) Klub K’s on their merchant marine vessels for use should they need to knock out our carrier battlegroups.

Then lets give The Chechens what they need. Are you serious? So, you think helping the Chechens is the solution. The Islamist Chechens who are part of the greater Al Queda network, who view the Russians and the US as different sides of the same problem. Those Chechens. The same Chechens that would kill you the same way they would kill a Russian.
Yep, the solution is to help terrorists.
A sage would say 'then lets give the Georgians what they need.' Or Poland. A non-sage would advocate for help to the Chechens.
I am curious as to what assistance you would want to go to the Chechens.

I am sure this is, somehow, going to be blamed on America... or Bush.

He probably had his investors put money into the project to develop it.

This is what we get when we let the greenies regulate energy production. The price rises, the Russians can then fund their military machine, and we pay the consequences.

I’m sort of thinking out loud here, but say we strongly suspected that Iran had gotten a hold of one of these.
The range on a cruise missile is about 600 miles (I think), so how would they be able to get it within range of the U.S.?
I doubt they’re going to be able to get it onto any major shipping line, and it’s not like rouge container ships can show up. We know where every container ship is and where it’s supposed to be going.
It’s about 3,000 miles to England, once it got past the midway in the Atlantic, we’d certainly intercept it.
In the end, it would pretty much kill any export business Iran had because of the headaches involved with moving their container cargo.

Stupidity reigns supreme with our regime. It is only a matter of time before the world slips into WWIII it is looking more and more like the only way out.
Just like WWII finally brought an end to the progressive misery during the 20’s and 30’s WWIII will bring an end to the idiot progressives this time around as well.
Hopefully enough of the idiots within our country will not forget and actually do something to protect the future our children's children.
For our children as a nation we have now failed miserably for them.

Ok... guess we’ll just have to go back to indiscriminately bombing all civilian areas.

I am sure this is, somehow, going to be blamed on America... or Bush.But of course... without anti-missile defense this wouldn't have been necessary. ;-) Wait for it... it's coming.

Simple solution.
Buy a few through a broker.
Give them to the Chechens.
