"Honestly TBO explain how you can be against the US actions in Russia? We setup an ANT-MISSILE defense system..."
A) What actions "in" Russia?
B) What do we need an anti-missle shield for?Look, I actually have my degree in poly sci and also studied military history for a long time. I can direct you to the literature, the stuff that gets read at West Point, not the Fox News talking points.
The only advantage of a "missle shield" is to ensure first strike capability. In other words, it's a message to the Russians that they cannot launch first on us, but we will launch first on them. It's a provocation manuever. It barely made strategic sense when Reagan tried to do it, it makes zero sense in the current geo-political climate.
Again, cui bono?
