A generation ago, when the Soviets put ballistic missiles in Cuba, President John F. Kennedy took action to see that they were withdrawn. Surely we were not unaware of this activity in Venezuela. Chavez has been cozy with Iran for years. What will today's president in the White House do in response???

Intermediate range: that's with us in mind. It's interesting, with our social, economic and international situation considered. And a ping for others, who might be interested.

Our political activities and concerns are bizarre in light of domestic and international social, political and business directions. The bulk of attentions are on our internal oligarchy and feeding frenzy (forty year social/class conflict with de-industrialization and debt decline).

So how many ABM systems are our leaders planning on mounting? Another way to ask that question would be, "How proud of themselves are they?"

As long as they are aimed at NYC it’s none of the US’s business.

If they aim them at US Cities- then it’s an issue.

The Book “One Second After” immediately came to mind.

One would think North Korea may also have simular plans.

Guess Obama doesn’t believe in the Monroe Doctrine.

The Iranian government is moving forward with the construction of rocket launch bases in Venezuela, the German daily Die Welt wrote in its Thursday edition.

Now arent they helpful, providing our military with targets to practice on?

We need a real president right now, not a community organizer who’s incompetent to boot.
This has the potential to be a replay of the Missiles of October, 1962.

Boy, this one is simple. A flight of 10, B-52’s, loaded to capacity with 1000 pound dumb bombs, protected by a squadron of F-22’s would do the trick....everyone would be home for supper...

I knew of that by foreign media. The average Venezuelan has NO access to anything that detracts from the dictator communism in general. Me, I have my means.

Disgracefully, I believe the technology was put in place by American companies, just like China.
