They are not even hiding it. They seem cock-sure that we won't do squat about it and I think they're right.

Nothing will be done and judging from the response in here, nobody cares.

Even an IRBM can loft a device far enough and high enough to detonate an EMP over the southern portion of the US.

Imagine the energy, manufacturing, transportation, and agricultural industries of a dozen southern states rendered inoperable. Millions of hungry and dying people.

Nothing will happen and nobody will care until that brief instant when the first flash in the sky over Miami catches everyone by “surprise”...

"They are not even hiding it. They seem cock-sure that we won't do squat about it and I think they're right."

This fits well with Obama's endless drive to weaken and bring down the US.

More like the “Dereliction of our” Idiot-in-Chief and his idiot-ridden posse administration. =.=

Conventionally armed ballistic missiles are military useless. The V2 had the distinction of being the only weapon that took more lives producing it than using it.

Their aim might be to intimidate their neighbors, but that tactic might backfire by driving their neighbors into alliances with the U.S., similar to NATO.

Once Iran goes nuclear, all bets are off. Israel may simply go Samson all over them.

So one must wonder what response the Obama administration is preparing. To date, little coverage of this planned missile placement in Venezuela has appeared in the mainstream press. Is our country going to wait until the missiles are in place and the infrastructure is created in Venezuela for Chavez to provide the place for terrorist cells to lie in waiting until they are called into action?

Obama has most likely already sent them a nice check to build more missile sites. Our msm will wait until they're headed this way and put the blame on us.
