Nuclear Chicken in Poland: Putin Can't Afford to Back Down
If the Bush administration proceeds with its plan to deploy its Missile Defense System in Poland, Russian Prime Minister Putin will be forced to remove it militarily. He has no other option. The proposed system integrates the the entire US nuclear arsenal into one operational-unit a mere 115 miles from the Russian border. It's no different than Khrushchev's plan to deploy nuclear missiles in Cuba in the 1960s.
Early last year, at a press conference that was censored in the United States, Putin explained his concerns about Bush's plan:
Nuclear weapons specialist, Francis A. Boyle, says the Bush administration's plans represent the “longstanding US policy of nuclear first-strike against Russia." In Boyle’s article “US Missiles in Europe: Beyond Deterrence to First Strike Threat” he states:

This explains a lot!! I hope the EU will use its diplomacy and stop the Neocons from actually going ahead with their plan in Poland. So far it is only on paper.
I never knew the real danger and real purpose of this missile shield project.
I can't imagine the Americans would actually nuke Russia. They might just want to corner Russia and have them do what uncle Sam orders.
It doesn't look good to me!

Early last year, at a press conference that was censored in the United States, Putin explained his concerns about Bush's plan:
“Once the missile defense system is put in place it will work automatically with the entire nuclear capability of the United States. It will be an integral part of the US nuclear capability....And, for the first time in history---and I want to emphasize this---there will be elements of the US nuclear capability on the European continent. It simply changes the whole configuration of international security…..Of course, we have to respond to that.”
Nuclear weapons specialist, Francis A. Boyle, says the Bush administration's plans represent the “longstanding US policy of nuclear first-strike against Russia." In Boyle’s article “US Missiles in Europe: Beyond Deterrence to First Strike Threat” he states:
“By means of a US first strike about 99%+ of Russian nuclear forces would be taken out. Namely, the United States Government believes that with the deployment of a facially successful first strike capability, they can move beyond deterrence and into "compellence."… This has been analyzed ad nauseam in the professional literature. But especially by one of Harvard's premier warmongers in chief, Thomas Schelling --winner of the Nobel Prize in Economics granted by the Bank of Sweden-- who developed the term "compellence" and distinguished it from "deterrence." …The USG is breaking out of a "deterrence" posture and moving into a "compellence" posture. (Global Research 6-6-07)
Bush's real goal is to force Moscow to conform to Washington’s diktats or face the prospect of first-strike nuclear annihilation. Putin must respond.Read the whole story here.... http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=9929

A grade 1 teacher relied firmly on one act to decide who started a fight. She called it the foot rule. Her question--Did you walk to him or did he walk to you.
They are desparate Loon.
Base Borden ran a summer camp for cadets --paid them $60.oo a week, cut their hair gave them passes and let them play with age appropriate toys. Nice Tv adds All our soldiers are volunteers--like a job----quite a few 20-25 year olds are joining the military---- and yes Loon-- you are too old to work but I'm quite sure that you have worked your share. You have seen your share as well.
