The oil crisis has given Russia tons of F.U. money. They have stated their opposition to the US poking its nose into their back yard for years and we never took them seriously. It really sucks that so many of the imperialists who run this country are constantly searching for another dragon to slay. We can't go on with this policy of interference, shitting all over other countries and not expect some type of blow back.

That is the claim made by the Bushies, to protect Poland from Iran. Once again, we lead the world in exporting bullshit.

Specious for sure. We have global strike capabilities and are the top of the food chain in weaponry and over-all military. So why do we need missles all over the world? So we can build and sell them, MIC in action. We keep poking our old boogeymen from the newer (still old) to older - Iraq, Iran, Russia. These three countries combined couldn't hurt us if they tried, but there's money to be made in all this.
