U.S. to deploy missiles near Russia

[faithfulguy]

Why doesn't the US place/give PAC3 missles to all of its allies? Conviently it's always the allies close to the Russian border...hummm. Poland needs to stop acting like a little girl, how about the US holds Poland's hand and tells Poland everything is going to be okay..

Poland already had an agreement with the US to put US missile there. But because of Obama backed out, there was an uproar from the Polish sid. So we decided to put some missle there to make them feel better. No need to put missiles any where as this has no military but political value.

A top Russian general said Friday that Poland's agreement to accept a U.S. missile defense battery exposes the country to attack, pointing out that Russian miltiary doctrine permits the use of nuclear weapons in such a situation, the Interfax news agency reported


We do now.....

Any link that Russia is actively deploying these missiles? Also, why would Russia point missiles at Poland just because Poland has PAC3. That is horrible assumption that these missiles are for Russian ballastic missiles.

The US is making a big deal out of the possible sale of the S-300 to Iran. However, Russia is over-reacting when the PAC-3 is 35 miles off its border? Strange world we live in.

Anyways Russia is respecting US wishes, why not the other way around?

Iranian officials have voiced growing irritation at Russia's failure so far to supply the S-300 missile system, which Israel and the United States do not want Tehran to have.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton praised Russia last month for not providing the S-300 to Iran. ..

S-300 has real military values in Iran that can prevent an Israeli attack. PAC3 has no political values.

Israel wants Iran free of S-300 for 'future operations'

So first Russia is making a big deal out of the PAC3, and now you're in support of putting up US military bases in Russia's back yard? We don't care about Poland, we arn't going to invade them. Poland would sleep better if they wern't so anti Russian. Russia is great friend with other NATO countries such as Greece, and Italy, and we have good relations with France, Germany...ect. Poland is putting itself in this awkward cituation, then it wonders why it can't sleep.

My guess is that because of history, Poland doesn't trust its big neighbors. Give them time and they will become trusting again.
