On August 14, Poland and the United States signed an agreement on the deployment of 10 ground-based missile interceptors (GBIs) on Polish territory.
The timing of the event leaves little doubt that it is linked with the recent conflict in the Caucasus. Like Washington, Warsaw unreservedly backed Tbilisi at all levels, and eventually agreed to host U.S. missile defense. Thus, a third positioning missile defense area has become reality.
Despite Russia’s repeated appeals to the United States to clarify the status of missile defense, Moscow has not yet received a meaningful answer. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said that the “U.S.-promised transparency and confidence-building measures have not yet become reality.”

Russia has serious differences on missile defense with NATO, which cannot decide on its format in Europe. Will Russia be included in European missile defense, or will it be merely a segment of U.S. national missile defense?
These questions became urgent in 2007, when the Americans started carrying out their plan of deploying radars and interceptor missiles by launching geodesic and surveying work at the future sites on Polish and Czech territory. They also began intergovernmental talks to draft agreements on their legal status.

Did anyone think of telling the Polish Government before they signed on the dotted line and agreed to spend Millions on the US missile defense system, that it is just as much good as a bag of rocks. Just found this and thought you might find it interesting. What else could you expect from the Three Stooges in the Whitehouse.
RT-2UTTH Topol M
NATO name SS-27 STALIN
Produced: December 20, 1994.
In service: 1997.
Nuclear 550 kT or six 550 kT MIRV warheads.
Engine: 3-stage solid propellant.
Operational Range: 11,000 km.
Guidance System: Inertial with GLONASS and stellar sensor.
Launch platform: Silo or Mobile launch vehicle.
Deployed: 62
The missile is designed to be immune to any planned US Anti-Ballistic-Missile defense. It is capable of making evasive maneuvers to avoid a kill by terminal phase interceptors, and carries targeting countermeasures and decoys. It is shielded against radiation, EMP, nuclear blasts and is designed to survive a hit from any laser technology.
According to The Washington Times, Russia conducted a successful test of their evasive payload delivery system. The missile was launched on November 1, 2005 from the Kapustin Yar facility. The warhead changed course after separating from the launcher, making it difficult to predict a re-entry trajectory.
The test launches conducted on September 27, 2005, and December 21, 2005, from the Dmitry Donskoi, a Typhoon class ballistic missile submarine, were successful.

Bush is doing his best to provoke Russia into taking military action
against this missile system,or least raise hostilities in Europe.
Poland is acting in a very foolish manner to have agreed to implement this system on their soil.their actions only put themselves in grave danger with no benefits to themselves.Or is bush
assisting Russia in reclaiming its lost territories . either scenario Poland is being made a sap out of.If Poland is depending
on Bush to protect them from Russia they are in a world of hurt.

The Drudge Report has the YouTube video making fun of the Democrats and North Korea–a video which YouTube apparently didn’t want you to see because they reportedly pulled it from their collection.

I’m from Poland and I can tell you that Tusk (the prime minister) as well as Kaczyński (the president) are total puppets. The scale of propaganda is incredible. The major TV stations are owned by the NWO. Although I doubt I could surprise anyone here.

It has become very clear and obvious why so many so called Western ‘leaders’ are making choices that go against the interests of the country and people they are sworn to serve.
They have been bought and paid for by the US government Mafia. Those disgusting political whores have sold their soul to the Washington Beelzebub. Fncking bastards, they can rot in hell.

The whole thing is just too much. Population control through the use of Nuclear weapons. If the world leaders are all in this together I guess as an indicator of when we should jump is when they all head to their bunkers.

The siting of a missile system in Poland, without a mandate from the people or the EU is a threat to the EU and Europe at large.
Any missiles that are intercepted, should this system actually work one day,would inevitably spread nuclear fall out over third parties.
Now the US has two European sites to intercept incoming missiles, the neocon apologists want to inact a new cold war phase so they can sell even more arms.
Cheney, Bush and Rice need removing, by any means possible, never has there been a better case made for an accident, though i couldn’t care less how it happens.
