Putin suggests alternative site for Missile Defense station

[vyo476]

Putin wants to return Russia to its power and influence that it use to have, but without communism.

They might not call it "communism" anymore but Putin is certainly a big-government authoritarian in a quasi-chaotic democratic republic with an economic system that's never quite found its footing in the wake of eighty-plus years of actual communism.

I think Putin would be thrilled to hang a couple of red hammer 'n' sickle banners outside the Kremlin.

Japan is our ally right? Why dont the US install missle defense system there too just in case North Korea launches one and then we can shoot em down. And while russia is doing this why cant we install offensive & defensive missles near russia and canadian border? So if russia does try to strike us we can defend it and ruissia is gonna get wiped out in less then 5 minutes.Tell putin youre in a no win situation. then we got him STALEMATED!

Just as a lot of Americans would be happy to replace the American flag with the stars and bars.

Japan proceeds on joint missile defense with U.S.

TOKYO (AP) — The Japanese government has decided to move forward with a ballistic missile defense program with the United States, a top government official said Saturday.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Shinzo Abe said the government has decided to proceed with the joint development of a missile interceptor for the program, designed to use defensive missiles to destroy attacking ones.
