Following the US move to scrap plans to deploy missile defense systems in Eastern Europe, Russia repeated the offer of jointly using its own missile defense facilities near the Southern border.










Speaking as a US citizen, I am perplexed about the comment concerning if the scrapped missile defense is aimed at Iran or Russia. No one I know considers Russia an "enemy". I am not a fan of Bush's "cowboy diplomacy" but even more concerned that Mr.Obama really knows what he's doing as commander in chief. I think it is a good idea for Russia and the US, and all other civilized nations to work together against terrorists and those countries that support terrorism. I think most of the world knows and agrees who these countries are. I am also a very strong believer that we cannot allow rouge nations like Iran obtain nuclear weapons. Unfortunately, it's just a matter of time until the terrorists get their hands on and detonates an atomic bomb. Who knows where it will be. It could be in Russia! Although no one is hated by the terrorists like the US, they believe anyone who is not Islamic should die!
