This is likely a good move if their is a missile base there it could likely be reset to missile defense extremely quickly if needed or flat out set up that way in the first place. It wouldn’t be difficult to import interceptors along with the regular missiles. I am not an Obama fan, but that doesnt mean everything he does is stupid, this could be a smart thing. It takes the political pressure off and could yeild the same result.
He has not done a THING to help this nation, not ONE. So, if he does something that APPEARS to help our country, I have to think I’m missing the part where we get screwed. So, he appeases the Russians by cancelling the missile shield, but then provokes them by saying he’s going to put offensive missiles in place. If I were Poland, I’d just tell him to get the F out of my country.
Ah, I didn’t read it that way. Excellent point.
If it is the same effect though...why wouldn’t Russia react just as strongly against it? You think it’s just posturing?

That’s a lot of IF’s. You obviously believe in the hope is a strategy doctrine.
The thing is... How does Obama’s actions in Poland, his planned actions now in Afghanistan, and his statements regarding disarming flush with this move? I can only think that at this point Obama is pulling stuff out of thin air, trying to appease EVERYONE and their mothers. I’ve got news for him — it WON’T WORK — never has, and never will.
