And if Russia were to build missile batteries on Cuba for purely defensive reasons and aimed at missles in the air targeting Russia or countries it has treaties with, you'd be okay with that? Oh, I forgot, they tried that and we nipped that in the bud. And that was done by a democrat president, too.

  There's a huge difference b/t the installation of missiles for ostensibly defensive purposes and the installation of purely defensive missiles. Russia has never contemplated the installation of purely defensive missiles in Cuba, and I have absolutely no problem with them doing so. If they want to waste millions defending that wasteland...let 'em go for it.

  Precisely , Charlson. We would have to be in a world of hurt
  if our intelligence agencies didn't know that when, and if, the
  Poles yielded to our pressure on the missle shield - the
  tensions with Russia might heighten.
  Big surprise - the tormented dog bites back! We've been ratcheting
  up the tensions in the Caucasus for years. But why did we pull
  this particular stunt right now? Could our elections be playing
  a part? Oh - they wouldn't be THAT devious - would they??
