The Russians on the one hand savour words like ''... said the missile shield would not be effective against Iranian missiles', but nevertheless continue to claim ''... its nuclear arsenal is being targeted.''
Umm ... if it won't defend against Iranian missiles, guess what other missile arsenals it won't defend against (ie. target)?
Drink some vodka if you need time to think that one through.
OK.
It is simple. If USA build wall on mexican border and claim that wall is against Canadian we all know that that wall will not effective against Canadian but very effective from Mexican. Similarly if you put shield on Russian border that wall will be efective against Rusians but not Iranians. If you would like protection against Iraninas you should put rockets on southeast of Europe (Romania, Bulgraia,Turkey, Greece, ..) not Northeast Europe (Poland). Take look into Geography maps!
Typical POlish politics. They are again placing their destiny into the hands or a remote power. WWII indeed finished long time ago...
Maybe Venezuela could ask Russia for a missile defense system to protect their oil fields against an Iranian attack. What would be our reaction ?
