    Our President offers an apology to countries we are not allied with, he does a 180 degree turn when he visits our Allies. Bare with us for now, Obama will no longer be President in a few short years.

    I hope you all stay safe in the meantime. Only G-D knows whom this man will help.

    "Washington: In a major shift based on a reassessment of the threat from Iran, US President Barack Obama Thursday shelved plans for a missile shield in Eastern Europe, the cause of a Cold War-style row with Russia.

    Obama decided to replace the shield, the brainchild of former US president George W. Bush, with a more mobile system targeting Iranian short-range and medium-range missiles, initially using sea-based interceptors."

    The Polish and Czech governments are against it. I thought American's didn't believe anyone else could tell them what to do.

    Russia is a US ally...the Cold War is over.

    I heard about this last week but Fox just picked it up I guess.

    Western Civilisation in terms of morals and values has dropped down to round about the age of the Neanderthal. I know it's called individual freedom or some such. But I want my chidren and their children to grow up trusting each other and all other members of the human community. Enough damage has been done. Europe is nearer Iran but prefers dialogue to neuclear rockets - it's not only human, it's civilised.

    Putin thought it was a great idea that the USA was no longer behind the missile defense shield that would protect Poland from Russia.

    The Czech people didn't want it anyway, their government was going to force it on them, so no apology required there.

    I'm not sure what you mean Misha. Are you asking me if I think it is bad that Russia is behind the missiles in Cuba?

    Yes, I do.

    Probably yeah, sorry my English. So, by the same token, American missiles at the Russian border are bad, too smile

    And I don't think there are any Russian-backed missiles on Cuba, I think we settled this question between Khrustchov and Kennedy a while ago smile

    But an American missile defense shield? Seems ok to me - I wouldn't trust Putin one inch.

    Because we actually agree, I think. A defense shield is a good idea if you're a country close to Russia (lots of weapons too but we won't go into that) and for the record, I don't trust Obama one inch either.

    Kinda seems like Obama is selling out Poland by canceling the defense shield. Poland is pissed - I'd be too.

    The timing was bad - the decision announced on the anniversary of Russia's invasion into Poland.
