Okay, bright boy. Okay, we start deploying the NIKE system. And let's say it can stop almost all warheads. Now what? At that point, the one's systems that would be stopped would be used before Nuclear Blackmail could happen. Allowing the complete deployment of a system that negates your own side of MAD is insane. Use em or lose em.

Progs like communism. They hate Putin because Russia is not communist anymore.

Okay, stupid. It's not a red or a blue thing. It's America leading the world and doing what is necessary to conserve the world.

Many parts are no longer worth the effort to "conserve"......Lesser Russia being one of them.

Putin has his sphere of influence. This is not the Soviet Union anymore. Eastern Europe is free, and each nation has a military. This is not 1930's Europe. The West has a huge advantage over Russia. Getting stupid though can cause massive destruction. Let Russians support what they have in their sphere of influence. Look at the money we put into the middle east since we went there over a few decades ago. I am more interested in some middle east nations getting richer and having less violence.

You are trying to justify your previous statements. Rules are, once it's been said, you can't go back and change it unless your DJT.

The Day After was a propaganda movie to suggest that President Reagan was going to start WW3 (because of his ABM proposal). It was so political that ABC ran it without any commercials.

Can you stop this nonsense. There was nothing political about it.
